New Chair for BPF Rotational Moulders

The British Plastics Federation is delighted to announce the appointment of Karen Drinkwater, Founding Director, JSC Rotational LTD, as the new Chair of the Rotational Moulders Group. Karen Drinkwater is a former Commercial Development Manager in the logistics and contract packing industry.  She has a degree in Agricultural Economics from University of Wales, Aberystwyth and set up JSC Rotational Ltd, a rotational moulding business with her husband, Mark Drinkwater, in 2003.

Karen stated on her appointment ‘I believe that there is great potential for the UK Rotational Moulding Industry within the coming years and it is wonderful to be given this role to help promote further interest in our sector.'

‘The Rotational Moulders Group is extremely grateful to my predecessor Martin Spencer who decided to step down as chair after several years in office.  Martin worked tirelessly for the Group and his hard work was clear to see in the success of the ARMO Conference in Belfast in 2008 and the direction he took in bringing BPF Rotational Moulders closer to the design community with a programme of seminars’.

Karen wants to build on Martin’s achievements particularly the interface with designers and sees considerable scope for new membership. Meanwhile Martin will remain the Groups representative to The Affiliation of Rotational Moulding Organisations (ARMO).
