PLASTICS names new director

The Plastics Industry Association (PLASTICS) launched a sustainability advisory board, which will include members who represent the association’s key councils and committees.


The goal of the sustainability advisory board is to enlist a diverse group of plastics industry professionals to discuss and identify sustainability priorities in the plastics industry, which will inform projects. The sustainability advisory board unveiled its top priorities in June at PLASTICS’ second annual Re|focus Sustainability & Recycling Summit in Orlando, Florida.

 “Our Sustainability Advisory Board will help to leverage the brightest professionals to collaborate to help move the needle forward for sustainability in the plastics industry,” said PLASTICS’ newly promoted vice president of sustainability, Kim Holmes. “We want to have a forward-thinking group with the intention to drive beyond recycling and more broadly approach sustainability as holistically including recovery in addition to recycling.”

Further strengthening its sustainability practice, PLASTICS has also welcomed Ashley Hood-Morley as director of sustainability. Hood-Morley has worked at PLASTICS since 2014 and brings a wealth of industry knowledge and expertise. Prior to joining PLASTICS, Hood-Morley worked for Eastman Chemical Company in Kingsport, Tennessee where she held a variety of positions including roles in in new product development, manufacturing technical staff, quality assurance, and product stewardship.
