The event is dedicated to rewarding innovation and exceptional performance and acknowledges the best companies and the best people in the market. A black-tie awards ceremony takes place on Friday 24 October at the London Hilton on Park Lane and will be hosted by comedian and TV presenter, Al Murray, aka ‘the Pub Landlord’.

Launched in 2001 and now firmly established as the most respected accolade for the plastics industry, the awards reward excellence in materials usage, design and manufacturing as well as training and environmental performance. With 16 categories judged by a panel of industry experts, there are opportunities for supplier companies, OEM manufacturers, plastics processors, consultants and designers to all showcase their work.

Commenting on the achievement, Plastribution’s Mike Boswell said:“We are delighted to be shortlisted in the polymer distributor category. After a period of absence from the awards, it is great to be once again recognised for our continued commitment to our customers and our abilities to provide them with unsurpassed levels of service.”
