You will be pleasantly surprised to know the connection between healthcare plastic and weddings.


Dailycsr.com – 02 August 2016 – Healthcare Plastics Recycling Council reports about its recent initiative, wherein it got together with Beacon Converters and DuPont to launch an innovative creation in “Packaging Digest”, whereby Bella the Bride is being displayed on a travelling exhibition. The said piece is a “wedding gown” designed and created by Nancy Judd who is an environmental educator as well as an artist.
