New name and rebrand for baby products trade body

The UK’s trade association representing the baby products industry has revealed a new name and complete rebranding, with the former Baby Products Association now being known as the Baby Products Industry Association (BPIA).

“The industry has evolved significantly in the 79 years since the association was formed in 1945, and following the recent restructuring and appointment of a new management team, a refreshed and updated outlook was high on our agenda,” explained Marc Hardenberg, chair of the organisation. “We believe that the new logo is modern and represents the aspirations of the BPIA going forward. In coming months we will be launching new literature and a new website too.”

The BPIA now presents membership packages available to both manufacturers, suppliers and retailers and also associates such as PR companies, industry consumer and trade shows, publications and more.

Marc added: “From 2024, we believe that all industry players have an important role to play in supporting the industry and in promoting safer products and services for babies and young children. We intend for the BPIA to be more inclusive than ever before.”

Members of the BPIA will be issued membership logos and certificates incorporating the rebranding in the next few months.

Companies interested in joining the BPIA can download the full membership pack here or the associate member and partnership pack here.
