2010 Bioplastics Award

bioplastics MAGAZINE and European Plastics News decided to team up and jointly present the 5th Bioplastics Award.

So we are now happy to have received some 20+ proposals for the Bioplastics Award 2010.

The 5th Bioplastics Awards will recognise innovation, success and achievement by manufacturers, processors and users of bioplastic materials. There are no more categories as before. To be eligible for consideration in the awards the suggested company, product, or service must have been developed or on the market 2009 or 2010.

The organizers clearly encouraged the global bioplastics community to participate. However, the winning company must send a representative  to the 5th European Bioplastics Conference in Düsseldorf Germany on 1/2 December 2010 to receive the award.

The entry had to be comprised of:

1.  Name and details of the company or person that should win the award
2.  What the product, service or development is and does.
3.  Why you think this product, service or development should win an award
4.  What your (or the proposed) company or organisation does

The entry was limited to 500 words (approx one page) and could also be supported with photographs, samples, marketing brochures and/or technical documentation.
The dealdine was August 31, 2010 so it is closed now. A shortlist of entries will be published later this year.

Winners will be announced on 1/2 December 2010 durcing the 5th European Bioplastics Conference and published in the December issue of bioplastics MAGAZINE and in European Plastics News.

Selection of the winner will be made by a panel of independent judges assembled by bioplastics MAGAZINE and EPN.

The decision of the judging panel is final and binding.
