The Fair Plastic Alliance is open to all organizations who are willing to work according to our Standard.

Waste collection networks

Waste collection networks are the heart of the Alliance. In joining the FPA, they commit to further increasing their operational efficiency and to improving the respect of human rights for waste workers and other vulnerable people involved in the supply chain for recycled plastic.

NGOs and social actors

NGOs and social actors play a key part in connecting informal workers with different public and private local and national stakeholders. In joining the FPA, they commit to raising philanthropic funds and leveraging support for the project in different regional and international fora; furthermore, they assess respect of fundamental human rights for waste workers.

Private companies

Private companies have a crucial role as industrial partners, due to their knowledge of the market. In joining the FPA, they commit to supporting the development of waste collection networks, investing in a social enterprise, or helping to find a market placement for Fair Plastic Grades.

Public sector

The public sector’s contribution is pivotal because they are the ultimate promoters of public health.
