Division Scope:
It shall be the aim of the Blow Molding Division to disseminate technical information, relevant to the blow molding industry, to the SPE membership, to educational institutions and to other technical societies peripheral to the plastics industry. This will be done through technical meetings, liaison with educators, publications, and newsletters. We will maintain listings of speakers and films on subjects within our area of interest. The scope of our interest will include blow molding machinery, tooling and ancillary equipment, processing, product testing and material evaluation. We will also direct our efforts toward augmenting the membership of the SPE and our Division.
