PLASTICS INDUSTRY
The perennial widespread use of plastics has been a long-standing issue, though there have been developments in the regulatory space to establish a ‘circular’ economy that ensures plastics and other materials previously considered waste are now converted into resources and reintegrated into the system. This hopefully suggests an improvement in the position of plastics companies, while also possibly changing the types of risks they now face.
Since 1982, Woodward Markwell has grown steadily within the marketplace, amassing a wealth of experience in insurance and financial advising. The company works with the different players in the plastics industry chain, from manufacturers to distributors and recyclers. Typical covers include public and product liability, as well as goods in transit, motor fleet, stock, business interruption, and even cyber liability. Woodward Markwell is also accredited with Trading for Good, a not-for-profit organisation that encourages support for local charities and communities that help with youth employment and environmental issues.
