Our role is to represent our members’ interests and objectives in all matters relating to their trading activities within the UK. We also work closely with our European partner organisation, APPLiA, to ensure that UK interests are represented across the European appliance landscape and that we keep our members informed of all requirements regarding trading across Europe. We exist to enable markets, build networks and influence standards and regulation. Our aim is to always be relevant, credible and influential.
