CEFIC, the European Chemical Industry Council, is both the forum and the voice of the European chemical industry. It represents, directly or indirectly, about 40,000 large, medium and small chemical companies in Europe, which employ about two million people and account for more than 30% of world chemicals production.
CEFIC is made up of the national chemical industry federations of 25 countries in Europe and large international companies which are members in their own right.
The policy of CEFIC is determined by the General Assembly, the Board and the Executive Committee. Since June 1998, the CEFIC Board and Executive Committee have been widened to include representatives from related Branch Organisations.
Their decisions are implemented by a Director General and staff whose offices are in Brussels, where CEFIC was incorporated in 1972 as an international association with scientific objectives.
