Good morning! We've been marking our 10th anniversary by looking back at significant trends, and while issues like the rise of automation and the push for lightweighting have grabbed attention within the industry, few have dominated the headlines as much as sustainability. In today's newsletter you can read more about that trend, and also about Steve Alexander of the Association of Plastics Recyclers, one of our 10 influential people.
Our weekly Machinery Minutes podcast leads off with another top trend — the continuing ripples from supply chain disruptions. Be sure to subscribe on your favorite app so you never miss an episode.
We also have new TCUs from Delta T, and news from Sesotec and ACS.
