PLASTICS CEO Matt Seaholm on today's IEEPA Supreme Court ruling: "A strong domestic manufacturing base depends on predictable trade policy that enhances competitiveness and strengthens supply-chain resilience." Full statement: brnw.ch/21x08dw #Plastics #IEEPA

California shouldn’t lower the bar on recycling — we should raise it. PLASTICS' Ivy Brittain argues in a recent op-ed that weakening recycling infrastructure risks undercutting trust, demand, and real progress in our recycling system. brnw.ch/21x07M3 #PlasticsIndustry

Did you know? 🚴 The helmets that we put on every bike ride contain expanded polystyrene or expanded polypropylene. These plastics absorb impact to protect our heads from harm and offer a sense of security no matter how long the trek! #PositivesofPlastic #PlasticsIndustry

Not even a snowstorm could stop us! ❄️ Just wrapped an incredible 2 days at our annual PLASTICS NY fly-in in Albany with nearly 30 legislative meetings, where we discussed EPR, sustainability & the future of our industry. #PlasticsIndustry #Advocacy #NYPolicy

Expanded polystyrene (EPS) isn't just packaging—it's a lifeline. By maintaining temperature stability, EPS ensures vaccines and medicines reach patients safely. Simple plastic with life-saving impact. 💊🌡️ MORE: brnw.ch/21wZr6o #Healthcare #PositivesofPlastic
