The association’s Sustainability Leadership Awards Committee has redesigned the competition to recognize all levels of sustainability efforts. Each award level is open to any TLMI supplier or converter member and this year’s submission deadline for entries is August, 27, 2021. For the first time, this year’s winners will be published in the Sustainable Brands newsletter, placing winning companies in front of thousands of brand owners and CPGs.

TLMI President, Linnea Keen, comments, “Once again the association is inviting our members to submit their hard work to be recognized and honored. After what has been an unprecedented year, all of us at TLMI are so looking forward to seeing our members at the Annual Meeting in October and of course part of that meeting will include featuring and celebrating some of the best-in-class applications printed in our industry in addition to honoring an esteemed group of companies’ sustainability practices and stewardship stories. Winning one of these awards is a tremendous accomplishment and also one that enables the winners to feature their awards in their own marketing, sales and brand messaging materials. I encourage all of our members to submit applications for consideration in this year’s competitions and I look forward to seeing and celebrating with the winners at our in-person Annual Meeting in Florida this October.”
