New Member – New Company DCB Mouldings became a member of the EPS Packaging Group in January 2007. In March 2007, DCB Mouldings took over another Group member, LINPAC Moulded Foams, creating a major new player with a new name — Moulded Foams.
“Working with top designer, Tom Dixon to manufacture and promote EPS chairs was a great way to showcase EPS as a versatile material that can be used for packaging — and for many other products. “The EPS recycling figures for 2006 are excellent. The work done by the Group to provide information, advice and support is undoubtedly the reason for this success. I am sure Moulded Foams will continue to play a central role in the EPS Packaging Group, especially as the current Chairman runs our Scunthorpe site!” The arrival of a large manufacturer like Moulded Foams continues the trend of consolidation with the UK EPS packaging industry during the past ten years. |
