While the drive for workable, sustainable solutions for a cleaner environment may seem complex and even somewhat daunting to most of us, it is vital that we each do our part in contributing to a cleaner, healthier Earth. That is why the Flexographic Technical Association hosts the FTA Environmental Excellence Awards. Through this awards program, FTA honors those companies and organizations that utilize environmentally sound resources and practices that contribute to a healthier Earth and a healthier way of life. 
Previous award winners were recognized for their pioneering efforts in developing innovative processes, products and management approaches that have had a positive impact on the environment. Such efforts include, but are by no means limited to: measures to reduce waste, procedures to prevent pollution, policies that protect worker/employee safety and technological innovations that have helped make their facility more environmentally friendly.
Your entries can help promote the spread of the best environmental practices and contribute to a better future. Summaries of the winning entries are highlighted in FLEXO® Magazine and EHS Direct electronic newsletter, as well as on the FTA Web site.
