Green Bay, WI | WS Packaging Group has won the Business Friend of the Environment Award for environmental innovation from the Wisconsin Environmental Working Group, an affiliate of Wisconsin Manufacturers and Conference. WS Packaging was honored in part for its efforts at its Algoma, WI, facility to keep about 115 tons of waste material per month from the local landfill by partnering with a state firm that turns the waste into industrial pellets that can be mixed with coal and bio-fuels to heat buildings and generate electricity.
