“We’re grateful to our panel of expert judges for lending us their time and talent,” said Tony Radoszewski, president and CEO of PLASTICS. “This is one of my favorite PLASTICS programs, because it gives companies an opportunity to prove that our industry is walking the walk when it comes to sustainability and protecting the environment.”  

“Innovation and sustainability have become inextricably linked in the plastics industry,” said Patrick Krieger, PLASTICS' vice president for sustainability, “We're seeing so many companies using plastics to improve the sustainability of so many other industries like food and the automotive industries.”
