SPE: A-NZ - Inspiring Plastics Professionals; Australia-New Zealand Section

The Australian-New Zealand Chapter of the SPE: Inspiring Plastics Professionals is a not-for-profit group that specialises in organising technical and networking events for professionals in the plastics industry. The objective of the Society is to promote the scientific and engineering knowledge relating to plastics. Every day the Society of Plastics Engineers (SPE) helps people and companies in the plastics industry succeed. How? By spreading knowledge, strengthening skills and promoting plastics. SPE is the only place where people from all parts of the industry can come together around important issues and technologies. SPE’s contribution to the plastics industry for over 60 years has made a significant difference to the technologies and innovations the industry enjoys today. In the process, we've developed a 20,000-member network of leading engineers, scientists and other plastics professionals, including technicians, salespeople, marketers, retailers and representatives from tertiary industries. Today, the industry is more interdependent than ever, and professional networks have taken on global dimensions. Such networks are almost impossible to develop and maintain in our fast-paced industry. Participation in SPE is a key success factor for those who want to thrive in today’s business environment.
