The PVCMed Alliance announced today that the Vinyl Council of Australia will join the Alliance effective immediately

Vinyl Council Australia will provide the Alliance with access to its educational resources and share experience and best practices in a number of relevant areas, such as recycling of medical waste.

The Vinyl Council of Australia was established in June 1998. Members include manufacturers of vinyl resin, vinyl compounds, vinyl and recycled vinyl products, and suppliers of additives and services to PVC product manufacturers. The Vinyl Council aims to strengthen and advance the sustainability of the Australian PVC industry through a range of activities including the dissemination of information, research, communication, representation and promotion.

“We are delighted to have the Australian Vinyl Council on board our Alliance” said Brigitte Dero, spokesperson of PVCMed. “We very much look forward to working together to share best practices in order to promote innovative experiences and strengthen the dialogue about the use and value of PVC in healthcare.”
