The independent non-profit association Vinyl Belgium (Brussels / Belgium; www.vinylbelgium.be) has appointed Benoît Leclère as executive director. He is currently responsible for the development of Recovinyl (Brussels / Belgium; www.recovinyl.com) in Belgium, France and Luxembourg and will perform both these roles concurrently. Leclère, who has a lot of experience in the advertising, communications and waste management industries, joined Recovinyl in 2005.
Recovinyl is an operational arm of VinylPlus (www.vinylplus.eu), the European PVC industry sustainable development programme, which is tackling the sustainability challenges for PVC and delivery of current recycling targets to 2020.

Vinyl Belgium promotes the use of PVC products as well as the image of PVC and closely monitors all information about PVC and its applications throughout its lifecycle. The organisation also acts as a sounding board and information provider to the authorities, consumers, industry, media, education and interest groups.
