Vinyl Sustainability Council Announces Recycling & Social Impact Awards
The Vinyl Sustainability Council (VSC), a self-funded business council advancing sustainability in the vinyl industry, announced the winners of its 2022 Recycling and Social Impact awards, who were recognized at the organization’s annual Sustainability Summit, held in Washington, D.C.
JP Industrial, a Lisbon, Ohio-based plastics recycler, received the 2022 Recycling Award for its ability to overcome the challenge of recycling window scrap material, improving its screening technology, and preventing 100 million pounds of PVC from ending up in a landfill. The Recycling Award recognizes the efforts of recyclers and product manufacturers with operations in the U.S. that find new solutions or markets for PVC products, including increased use of recycled vinyl content in their products or engagement in partnerships with companies in take-back programs.
