The Japan Plastics Industry Federation (“JPIF”) started as the Plastics Association organized on July 1, 1950. As a result of the development of the plastics industry, the committees of the Plastics Association became independent as trade associations. However, there was a growing demand for a federation of those associations. To meet the demand, the Japan Plastics Association was formed in October, 1959, which was reorganized to the present form of JPIF in June, 1962, to be made up of corporations concerned.
