LATI and its Network: Growing Together
At LATI, we believe in the power of networking and the value of collaboration. This is why we are active members of numerous national and European associations: spaces where innovation, ethics, strategic vision, and concrete commitment converge.
Being members of these organizations means contributing to building a sustainable, inclusive, technologically advanced future, where companies position themselves as responsible drivers of change.
The associations we are part of work in these areas:
The Associations We are Part of: Shared Value
Environmental Sustainability and Circular Economy:
Circular Plastics Alliance (CPA)
The CPA is a European coalition promoting the use of recycled plastic in new industrial products. The goal is ambitious: to reach 10 million tons of recycled plastic used annually by 2025. LATI participates to actively contribute to the transition towards a circular economy.
Operation Clean Sweep® (OCS)
LATI adheres to OCS, a voluntary European program for responsible management of plastic pellets. The goal is clear: prevent pellets, flakes, and powders from entering the environment during production processes. A choice aligned with LATI's commitment to concrete sustainability.

Founded in 1979, TMP is the association that promotes technical culture in plastic materials,
organizing events, courses, and conferences to update industry professionals. LATI shares the association's mission and supports the dissemination of technical knowledge.

The Rubber and Plastics Federation is the reference association within Confindustria for Italian companies operating in the rubber, electrical cables, and plastics sectors. Founded to promote and protect the interests of these industries, the Federation consists of two main associations: Assogomma and Unionplast. LATI, a member since 2025, shares the Federation's mission to support companies in the sector in their economic, technical, and environmental development.
