Packaging World honors leading packaging suppliers

Twenty-five companies were awarded the honor of being a Leadership in Packaging 2012 category leader, as chosen by their customers and colleagues. Packaging World launched this year's program last January with online voting for nine months; category leaders announced at the end of September. Awards were delivered during last week's PACK EXPO in Chicago and we were able to photograph many of the recipients. See all category leaders at www.packworld.com/leadership.
