The Wisconsin Department of Natural Resources (DNR) has recognized Outlook Group with a 2020 Wisconsin Recycling Excellence Award.
Based in Neenah, WI, USA, Outlook Group is a manufacturer of flexible packaging, folding cartons, pressure-sensitive labels and shrink sleeve labels. The company diverts more than 95% of manufacturing waste from going to landfills, either by recycling fiber and other materials or by sending laminated films, pressure-sensitive label material, matrix waste and release liner to their Waste-to-Energy (WTE) partners.
Outlook Group is one of 15 recognized by the state department among a mix of businesses, non-profits and local governments. The Wisconsin DNR has four award categories within its Recycling Excellence recognition program, including Overall Program, Projects and Initiatives, Innovation and Special Events.
Outlook Group was chosen as a Wisconsin Recycling Excellence Award winner because of its overall robust and constantly improving landfill diversion program, and for demonstrating a commitment to improving its already sophisticated recycling scheme.
“This year marks the 30th anniversary of Wisconsin’s landmark recycling law, which has encouraged ‘reduce, reuse, recycle’ since 1990,” says Brad Wolbert, DNR Waste and Materials Management program director. “This year’s winners exemplify outstanding recycling and diversion practices, which we hope others will emulate.”
