We’re returning to AMI’s Agricultural Film North America event on July 23–24 in Tampa, Florida! Now in its third edition, this exciting event connects players across the agricultural films supply chain with the latest industry insights. To maintain food demand, agricultural productivity, including films used to protect crops and plants, is increasingly important. Currently, the global agricultural films market is close to US$14 billion. We’re proud to help the industry enhance crop productivity and preservation by providing innovative 100% post-consumer certified plastic resins and closed loop programs for this market. Attending? Be sure to chat with Marc Goldenberg, our Manager of New Business Development, about our developments in the use of PCR in applications and our closed loop programs for various plastic applications. We hope to see you there!

We’re determined to enable a closed loop system and create a greener future. Through our innovative 100% post-consumer recycling process, we’ve made a lot of progress toward our goal, diverting over 100 million lbs of post-consumer plastic scrap from landfills across North America annually!

Meet Jeff Wood, our HR Manager! Jeff is involved with everything from recruiting, onboarding, and answering employee questions and concerns to working with the team to plan special events. With an open-door policy for anyone to drop in and chat, his welcoming demeanour and passion for what we do keep employees smiling at all four of our locations. In his other role as Lab Manager, he ensures our products continue to meet our high-quality standards. As a gardening aficionado, Jeff has to restrain himself from buying more planters each summer. He also enjoys going for long walks with his wife of 36 years, spending time with his seven children and five grandchildren, and experimenting with cooking different meals for his family. Always quick with a laugh and a smile, Jeff’s goal is to bring a little joy to everyone he meets. #WeArePCR #PlasticsIndustry #PackagingSolutions #CompanyCulture #WorkCulture #TeamCulture #MeetTheTeam #Sustainability #PackagingSustainability #PlasticsRecycling

We’re celebrating the start of summer by looking back on a fantastic Q2! This spring, we engaged in a plastics sustainability-focused event circuit, where we travelled to five events in the US, including three we spoke at and two where we exhibited. We also answered Environment and Climate Change Canada’s call to #BeatPlasticPollution by participating in the Middle Maitland Rejuvenation Committee’s river cleanup. Our team saw incredible growth this past quarter, with a wide range of positions filled, including a new technical sales representative, a procurement manager, a millwright, an electrician, a weekend maintenance supervisor, and several production workers. Plus, we’re proud to announce the installation of our third film line in our Hazleton, Pennsylvania plant is progressing and will lead to additional capacity by September, and we had productive meetings with legislators in Sacramento, California in our ongoing fight to save the SB 207 bill. And we have one more exciting announcement to make: our Listowel location had a record month in production and sales this May! Thank you to everyone for making this quarter a success! #WeArePCR #PlasticsIndustry #PackagingSolutions #PCR #PostConsumerRecycledResin #LDPE #CompanyCulture #WorkCulture #TeamCulture #QuarterReview #CompanyUpdates #milestones #Canada #US #Listowel #Alberta #Lethbridge #Hazleton #Pennsylvania

Meet Hendrik Dullinger, our Vice President of Business Development! After working for 10 years in packaging sustainability, Hendrik’s experience shines through in his role, which involves industry engagement and corporate growth, as well as contributing to the commercial and technical components of our business model. Hendrik and his family are avid globetrotters; he’s explored countries on all six continents, and he visits somewhere new with his wife and two children every year. Beyond travel, Hendrik spends a lot of time outdoors between camping and hiking, visiting mountains and beaches, and playing soccer. Plus, he just completed his first soccer coaching licence! #WeArePCR #PlasticsIndustry #PackagingSolutions #CompanyCulture #WorkCulture #TeamCulture #MeetTheTeam #Sustainability #PackagingSustainability #PlasticsRecycling

Conversations around circularity took centre stage at GreenBiz Group’s Circularity 24! Hendrik Dullinger, our Vice President of Business Development, Arjun K., our Manager of Closed Loop Programs, and Marc Goldenberg, our Manager of New Business Development, gathered insights and uncovered many new perspectives during this unique conference. The call for packaging standardization to allow for better reuse and recycling has been amplified. With EPR coming online in Canada and parts of the US, our team learned that Producer Responsibility Organizations (PROs) will take the lead to implement reusable packaging incentives and streamline the system and packaging formats to reduce costs for brands and save on EPR fees. This will increase the need for cross-border collaborations. While we encourage reuse, we remind policymakers to beware of potential loopholes and to closely monitor take-back programs to ensure reusables are actually recirculated. We hope that the conversations that took place will inspire committed action and that PCR use in new products and packaging will continue to rise.

Thanks for joining us at PCR: The Challenges, Victories and Future of Implementing Recycled Content! Our Vice President of Business Development, Hendrik Dullinger, had an incredible time in Long Beach, California sharing his insights at the event and was excited to speak alongside fellow recycler, Envision Plastics. Plus, we learned all about how film PCR can be integrated into thin, clear, and flexible food packaging from Emerald Packaging, Inc, and were impressed to see how the company is acting as a leader in this space and setting a new sustainability benchmark. And, as always, we’re grateful to our customers on the west coast and to Western Plastics Association for providing such a fantastic forum for us to connect on a regular basis.
