 I'm Bob McIntire with Plastipak Packaging and we were proud to win the Innovation Award here at Pack Expo for our PPK Natura Resin.

And the resin is basically a drop in solution for virgin resin, but we're using MEG that's being produced from carbon waste that is using a proprietary technology from our partner, Lanzatech, where they can capture waste carbon and use it to produce MEG that then can be used to make PET, reducing our greenhouse emissions and  being more sustainable for the future.
