Process & Packaging Machinery Association
The PPMA is the UK's trade association for suppliers of processing and packaging machinery to the UK market and represents over 350 member companies.

UKIVA and BARA are both now Special Interest Groups of PPMA.

Its principle objective is to promote sales of machinery, both at home and abroad, through various projects and services of mutual benefit to both members and their customers by providing free technical and machinery information and advice.

The Exhibition for Processing and Packaging Machinery, the PPMA Show took place at the NEC in Birmingham in September 2009.

BARA (formerly known as the British Robot Association) provides a voice for the Robotics and Automation Industries, when dealing with government, industry, financial and academic institutions. The aim of the BARA is to promote the use of, and assist in the development of Automation in British industry. Recently the BARA membership voted to join the PPMA and for the BARA identity to exist as a special sub-group within the PPMA with representation on the PPMA Board.
