MPA joins Global Cement and Concrete Association

The Mineral Product Association (MPA) has joined the Global Cement and Concrete Association (GCCA) as an affiliate member.

Nigel Jackson, MPA's CEO, said: "Our affiliation to GCCA builds on our valued membership of 12 European Regional Trade Associations covering aggregates, asphalt, cement, concrete, dimension stone, lime, mortar, silica sands. The strengthening of the link between the MPA's national role, the regional associations and now the global level is a positive and logical next step in aligning the advocacy and influence of the industry in a fast changing and complex world.
