Recoup appoints Adrian Whyle as vice chair

Adrian Whyle will support and guide Recoup's strategic and practical initiatives, strengthen governance, and help drive genuine collaboration and forward-thinking across the entire plastics value chain. 

Whyle brings over 35 years of international experience in the specialty chemicals and plastics industry across a wide variety of roles. The appointment reflects Recoup's ongoing commitment to leadership excellence and to delivering the organization's longstanding aims.
 
Whyle said: 'I have supported Recoup for many years as a Board member, and I am really looking forward to seeing how far the network can push plastic circularity in the coming years. I hope to play a key role in working with industry and charity partners, members, and stakeholders to advance Recoup's mission.'
 
Recoup chair Jim Armstrong added: 'Adrian is very well known and respected across business, academia and government, and I am delighted that he has taken on the vice chair role. 

'His extensive experience and strategic perspective will be invaluable as we continue to build stronger connections across the plastics value chain and enhance our impact in delivering circular plastics systems while reducing impacts on the environment. I would also like to thank Glyn Staines, who steps down as vice chair, for his hard work and support over the past five years.'
