| Infrastructure Products & Consumer Goods Association |
Representatives from 12 industrial branches, covering all sectors (including the film sector – which appears separately) are members of this association. Each branch maintains its own institutions, holds periodic meetings and is run by democratically elected management boards (comprising chairmen and board members). Non-profit manufacturing unions, which offer special services to their members, operate alongside a number of these associations,
The Association of Building Materials and Consumer Goods Industries has around 500 members (250 direct members and around 250 of whom are members through independent associations), who employ approximately 27.4% of all industrial workers.
Due to the association’s wide range of branches, its large employment force and weight of turnover in overall industry (23%), the association serves as a faithful cross-section and representative of Israeli industry’s problems and achievements – in this it is unique.
The Association represents industry in all its various aspects, before different public bodies and acts to promote and further industry in Israel.
