SAY HELLO TO SOME A WARD-WINNING INNOVATIONS

摘要

A sure sign the plastics recycling industry has finally entered the big leagues is the fact that it now has its own awards. Think the Academy Awards minus the red carpet dresses and long-winded speeches. During the 2018 Plastics Recycling Conference, held last February in Nashville, Tenn., the Association of Plastic Recyclers (APR) recognized three innovators selected for the 2018 APR Plastics Recycling Showcase during the APR Technical Forum. "For the third year running, the program commended innovators that address technical challenges facing plastic recyclers," John Standish, APR's technical director, told the crowd. "Innovation drives the growth of recycling and is essential to the success of the plastics recycling industry."
