The United Group (TUG) National Conference, held in Orlando, FL, awarded Stretch Films the Supplier Industrial Gold Award on April 29. Marketing Manager Ronald Casalino on behalf of the AmTopp Division business unit.

The TUG supplier award arrived only a few weeks before the June startup of AmTopp new stretch film lines at its Remington, IN plant, which is a replicate of its sister facility in Phoenix. The capacity of the plant is about 50 million pounds per year.

“As the last few awards were being presented, they called out Western Plastics which was being rewarded for their segment of supplier business. As I was hooting and hollering for them, since they are a great AmTopp customer, I nearly missed hearing TUG calling out one of the last awards for the Supplier Industrial Gold Award – AmTopp! This award goes out to all of us for our efforts to support our buying groups, in this case, TUG,” said Casalino.

AmTopp President Homer Hsieh said that the exclusive announcement from TUG reflects the dedication of the entire Stretch Films business unit.

“On the eve of starting up our new Remington plant’s extrusion lines, this award reinforces our confidence as we continuously expand the stretch film business. In turn, the new capacity in Indiana will help us better serve our distributor partners,” said Hsieh.
