AFPM: U.S. government flip-flop in support of plastic production caps threatens years of UN negotiating work
Our members abide by numerous chemical policies and regulations administered in the U.S. Many regional policies are shared and discussed internationally through the Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development and the United Nations. There are also international conversations occurring regarding the sustainability of single-use plastics and potential solutions.
AFPM supports a tiered, targeted and risk-based approach to chemical safety. Technology continues to rapidly evolve and we need a regulatory system that adapts to these advances and ensures the U.S. remains a competitive location for the production of petrochemicals.
