PLASTICS recognizes Manufacturing Day
The Plastics Industry Association (PLASTICS) recognizes and celebrates Manufacturing Day, the largest annual event to promote manufacturing in the United States. Manufacturing Day works to show the reality of modern manufacturing careers by encouraging thousands of companies and educational institutions around the nation to open their doors to students, parents, teachers, and community leaders.
The plastics industry is the eighth largest U.S. manufacturing industry, employs over one million workers and generates $519 billion.
