RadTech’s Sustainability Committee is excited to announce the 2024 Sustainability Award!
This year’s Sustainability award will look a little different. Instead of focusing only on energy-curable technology end users as it did at past events, the Committee has decided to open the award to technology suppliers and users. Whether it be a supplier of raw materials, formulators, lamp manufacturers, or any other part of the supply chain, everyone will have the opportunity to be recognized for their efforts in sustainability. This is an important award to RadTech because UV/EB technology has always been a sustainable choice for technical development. This award demonstrates our ongoing efforts to promote all technology users and showcase their sustainability efforts. The categories are as follows:
1. Supplier – Customer-based sustainable benefits.
What are you, as a supplier, doing to provide your customers with a sustainable product?
This could be any number of sustainable benefits. Ideas could include but are not limited to, your product helping reduce carbon emissions, utilizing recycled materials, your process having high energy efficiency, reducing harmful air pollutants, and using more sustainable raw materials such as biobased materials. Reducing energy usage in the creation of products, advancements in R&D to further UV/EB technology, or any other customer-based benefit your company has provided for sustainable innovation. Data to support these claims will be favorable in the award process but not required.
2. Supplier – Operational Based Sustainable benefits
What is your company doing internally to drive sustainable innovation?
This could be facilities change, e.g. (new light bulbs, energy-efficient heating and cooling, use of renewable energy, or any building upgrade), a new development in your sustainability reporting, working in the community to help vulnerable populations, creating a unique eco-conscious working environment. Anything that the employees of the company do for the benefit of creating a more sustainably mindful business.
3. End-user
This is for any end user of UV/EB technology who sees sustainable advantages from using the technology. Some examples can be converting to UV/EB from a conventional technology. Proudly promoting the technology for the numerous sustainable benefits. Winning local, state, or federal recognition for using UV/EB or any reason the end-user has benefited from using UV/EB technology.
