Underwriters Laboratories (UL) recently named senior executives of RB, Procter & Gamble, SC Johnson, Givaudan, Kao, Pfizer, CVS Health, Walmart, and the Household & Commercial Products Association (HCPA) to the UL Advisory Council. HCPA, the only trade association named to the council, will be represented by Jim Jones, executive vice president, strategic alliances and industry relations.
This past fall, HCPA president and CEO Steve Caldeira and the CEOs of five other allied trade associations (American Cleaning Institute, Consumer Healthcare Products Association, Council for Responsible Nutrition, Grocery Manufacturers Association, and Personal Care Product Council) sent a joint letter to the president and CEO of UL to initiate a three-way dialogue between product manufacturers, retailers, and UL-WERCs. UL responded positively to the trade association CEO letter by announcing that it would assemble an advisory group made up of manufacturers and retailers.
