  • Drive R&D for sustainable materials and processes, including advanced recycling technologies and potentially biodegradable alternatives, while ensuring scalability and cost-effectiveness.
  • Collaborate with industry groups (e.g., Sustainable Packaging Coalition, Plastics Industry Association), regulators, and potential NGOs to shape policy and standards.
  • Establish KPIs for sustainability goals (e.g., % PCR content, carbon footprint reduction) and provide honest and transparent results to customers and stakeholders.
  • Ensure all sustainability claims are substantiated, compliant with industry standards to maintain credibility.
  • All other duties as assigned.

Do you have what it takes? Airlite Plastics is a versatile employer; complacency is not one of our strengths! We work hard each day to ensure that equipment efficiency and customer satisfaction never leave our line of sight. Successful candidates for the role will possess the following:
