he 19th edition of the Plastics Industry Awards was held at the London Hilton on Park Lane in London
on 27 September.
Organised by the Crain Global Polymer Group and Plastics & Rubber World
(PRW) magazine, the awards showcase
the best of the best from across the UK
polymer industry, highlighting innovation in such areas as technology, product design, training, the environment,
and more.
The theme of this year's event was 'The
Greatest Show'. Throughout the evening,
the 600 guests were entertained by a
series of performances, including songs,
dance and acrobatic displays.
Our host for the event was Shaun Williamson. Well known for his more than
600 appearances on Eastenders, plus
other shows such as Extras, Williamson
proved to be a dynamic entertainer, particularly with his risqué standup comedy.
Our host also served as announcer for
the awards presentations.
In addition to the awards, there were a
series of supporting events, including the
Charity Casino sponsored by Arburg. For
his table skills, Mick Shaw, from Plastek
UK, went home with a magnum of champagne. But more importantly, £1,200 was
raised for Acorns Children's Hospice.

Further, a round of Heads & Tails,
sponsored by Distrupol, saw Debbie
Manderﬁeld, guest of Motan Colortronic, also win a magnum of champagne.
Souvenir pictures of the evening were
available in a photo booth sponsored by
Piovan.
Following the awards presentations,
a live band played dance music in the
main ballroom before everyone was invited to join in the late night aftershow
party, sponsored by Engel.
On the following pages, PRW oﬀers
a round up of all this year's award winners. This includes a closer look at the
winning entry, the ideas behind the initiative and individual comments from
people involved in the entry.
With a big thank you to each of our
platinum and gold sponsors, without
which this event would not be possible, we hope all our guests had a great
night!
The team at Crain and PRW hope
that you will enjoy our special coverage of this year's awards. We're already
looking forward to another fantastic
evening next year, so keep a look out for
announcements covering entry submissions and we'll look forward to seeing
you on 30 October, 2020 for the 20th
Plastics Industry Awards!
