Energywise Plastics Project Kicks Off

The British Plastics Federation (BPF) is already involved in a number of innovative Research and Development projects, but has recently added "ENERGYWISE Plastics" to its expanding projects portfolio.

ENERGYWISE Plastics is a two-year project funded by the Transfer of Innovation strand of the European Commission’s Lifelong Learning Programme, and will develop an e-learning platform and training materials for those working within the plastics industry to increase their knowledge and understanding of energy management.

Using a ‘blended learning’ approach ENERGYWISE Plastics will provide interactive online modules and supporting hard-copy resources focusing on three different areas within an organisation: management, processing and peripherals.  This project will take many of the tools developed through the "EU Recipe" Project and present them in an easy to use e-learning format.

With the BPF's expertise and expanding membership base, and with energy management a key area for the plastics processing industry, we will keep our members updated at every opportunity.
