The entry deadline for all other categories is Friday 10th June 2011.
The Plastics Industry Awards is the industry’s most prestigious awards initiative, recognising, celebrating and encouraging achievement throughout the UK plastics industry. The 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. The awards are open to all companies involved in the UK plastics industry including OEM manufacturers, processors and consultants.
For the Apprentice or Trainee of the Year Award, sponsored by Krauss Maffei, the Plastics Industry Awards’ judges will be looking for measurable results in areas such as academic achievements, skills development and overall performance in the workplace. Each person must be entered by his or her training establishment or company. In its role as a Trade Association for Plastics Machinery companies, the PMMDA has donated a prize of £1000 to be awarded to the winning finalist.
“Attracting the best apprentices is essential for the future success of the plastics industry in the UK,” said Mike Bate, managing director of Krauss Maffei UK. “We are in the process of taking on an apprentice ourselves and are proud to also be able to sponsor the Plastics Industry Awards Apprentice or Trainee of the Year Award for 2011.”
Supplier companies have to submit a written entry about work they have done with one customer. Plastics processors can enter categories including the highly coveted Processor of the Year Award.
