Mission The Western Plastic Association (WPA) is a trade association dedicated to representing the broad interests of the Pla ... stic Industry in the Western States and Canadian Provinces of North America. Our goal is to unify the Industry and educate legislators and the public through programs and newsletters. WPA was created out of the trade organization, the California Film Extruders and Converters Association (CFECA). CFECA has been in existence since the 1970’s and represented the interests of the film and bag industry in California and the Pacific Northwest for over 30 years. CFECA had many successes in the legislative arena, and provided its members with the opportunity to network on a monthly basis. The new name for CFECA, The Western Plastics Association, represents our expansion as a plastics trade association to all the sectors of the industry. Objectives Serve as the voice of Western Processors with regard to political, environmental and industry issues. Provide educational opportunities for its members, including discussions of relevant technical, business and legal issues. Provide a forum for networking through programs held at multiple locations on the West Coast. read more
