Tanks, pipes and pressure vessels
		The Fiberglass Tank and Pipe Institute was incorporated in 1987 as a non-profit organization. Its' purpose is to provide a forum through which the fiberglass reinforced thermoset plastic ("FRP" or "RTP") industry can work together effectively toward the common goal of advancing the use of all fiberglass products in the tank and piping marketplace, i.e. coordinate market studies and statistics, combine talents and resources to provide standard-setting organizations with superior technical data and disseminate information to the government, industry and the public.
		National Association of Corrosion Engineers
		Dual Laminate Fabrication Association - DLFA was formed to promote the use of Dual Laminate structures composed of a thermoplastic liner over-wrapped with fiber glass reinforcement. These structures have found uses in handling various types of corrosive liquids and gases as well as hi-purity liquids. Tanks, pipe, fittings, fume scrubbers and various other chemical vessels are made in this manner and provide a cost effective answer to the problems addressed.
Boat Building
		International Boat Industry is the leading business-to-business magazine and website covering the global marine recreational trade.
		European Boatbuilder is designed to serve the interests of professionals involved with the design and construction of pleasure boats and small commercial craft. The title also focuses on materials, components, tools and processes.
Construction
		The Network Group for Composites in Construction (NGCC) represents the composites in construction industry in the UK and unites its members in one body. Its membership covers all sectors of the industry. Activities of NGCC include dissemination of information and news, forums for collaboration and networking, and providing a central focus for those needing support within the industry.

Automotive
	Automotive Composites Alliance	A business unit of the ACMA, is a trade association of 24 plastics material suppliers and molders that provide the automotive and truck industries with composite products.
		For four decades SEMA, the Specialty Equipment Market Association, has been at the forefront of the automotive aftermarket – a unique industry dedicated to the enhanced performance, appearance and handling of all types of passenger cars, light trucks and recreational vehicles.
