It was the best of times...it was the worst of times. These familiar words by Charles Dickens have certainly rung true over the course of the last year or so as the world faced the global threat of the novel coronavirus. The
custom plastics industry experienced some ups and some downs as we all weathered the most unusual and unexpected year of many of us can remember. Through it all, we learned how resilient we can be as individuals and as an industry.
From the earliest days of the recent pandemic, preventing the transmission of germs and limiting personal contact has been a key element of curbing the spread of disease. The custom plastics industry rose to the occasion as personal protective equipment (PPE), as well as packaging for individual servings and reduced-contact service, became critical. Single-use packaging products, disposable food packaging and utensils, face shields and their holders, gloves, and so many more much-needed products were produced rapidly, in the quality and quantity needed, and delivered to areas most in need.
At the same time the plastics industry was seeing an unprecedented demand for products, we were also challenged by reduced labor forces, shutdowns during periods of peak infection rates, supply and logistical issues, and a constantly changing environment. As so many companies have done over the course of the last year or so, we adapted, relied on time-tested procedures, and utilized the experience and collective knowledge of our Bennett Plastics team to meet demand. As we begin to see the light at the end of the tunnel, it is our hope that the strong partnerships we maintained and new ones we forged over this difficult time will be long-lasting ones that see us and our valued business partners into the future together.
At Bennett Plastics, we are prepared to face whatever challenges we encounter, striving to meet or exceed our customers' expectations regardless of the situations we face as a company and as an industry.
