Vision and Versatility Rewarded

TV presenter and comedian Dara O Briain announced the winners of the eleventh annual plastics awards at a black-tie gala event held at the London Hilton, Park Lane on Friday 14 October. Winners included a design agency which had created a potentially life-saving piece of rock climbing equipment as well as a student who designed a grow box which enables dwellers of high rise flats to cultivate their own vegetables. The audience also heard about collaborations between all parts of the plastics supply chain which had resulted in energy efficiencies, improved safety and boosted profits.

Known as the Oscars of the UK plastic industry, the Plastics Industry Awards offer an insight into current developments in materials usage, product design and innovative manufacturing as well as identifying excellence in training and environmental performance. Almost 800 plastic professionals and their guests attended this year's glittering awards ceremony to find out who had won.
