Plastics News is celebrating its 30th anniversary this year.
While we don't have data for all 30 of those years — we didn't start putting together rankings until a few years later — we do have a lot of interesting nuggets filed away.

Attached are these fun facts, Special thanks to our art director, Jessica Jordan, who made these numbers look good.
