As the industry leader in providing meaningful and relevant industry data, MAPP continues to produce and publish benchmarking reports for industry executives.

2019 Award Winners in Innovation and Educational Outreach
At the 2019 Benchmarking and Best Practices Conference, MAPP recognized plastics companies that were excelling in two areas: innovation and educational outreach. MAPP established its Best Practices Award Series in 2015 – and each year submissions, involvement and impact see significant increases from MAPP member organizations. Not only do these awards recognize member organizations going above and beyond, they also give plastics companies the opportunity to learn and get inspiration from others in the industry.
Submissions for the awards are collected in the 2019 Best Practices Book (see more information at www.mappinc.com/resources/bestpracticesawards).

MAPP Announces 2025 Vision
At the 2019 Benchmarking and Best Practices Conference, the MAPP Board revealed its 2025 Vision for MAPP.
The Vision: “MAPP’s retention and expansion of best-in-class processors will be accomplished by each member’s full ownership of its participation and involvement that will provide increasingly enhanced value for active contributors.”
This new vision elaborates and expands on a long-running theme in the organization: MAPP members sharing best practices, helping other members and working to make the industry better overall by working together.
