Chairman's Mission Statement

My vision for the SPA (as it has been from when I took Chairmanship) is very clear and remains unchanged - to help our member companies to become and continue to be excellent businesses. We will achieve this by continuing to offer two flavours of professional support for Sheet Plants -

On a Micro level - training, best practice initiatives and good professional advice/support for all Sheet Plants in the SPA.

On a Macro level - keep our members well informed and safe with regular updates on the economic outlook, new legislation and Health & Safety guidelines, whilst continuing to use the SPA as a vehicle to influence our industry peers, government and consumers.
