Packaging Hall of Fame Information
The NJPEC Packaging Hall of Fame was established in 2003 to recognize the achievements of our peers in the packaging industry who have made a significant contribution to the field of packaging for at least 25 years.
Nominations are accepted from members of the organization. Final selection is made by a committee consisting of NJPEC members. Though the goal of the NJPEC is to promote packaging in the state of New Jersey, we also recognize that in these times the world has become a smaller place and we are impacted by people in the packaging industry who may live or work in other states and countries. Therefore the nominations are not limited by geography (in other words, you do not have to live or work in New Jersey people it is clear that they have impacted packaging in New Jersey).
