Plastics Pipe Institute presents industry veteran with Lifetime Achievement Award
(UI) – The Plastics Pipe Institute, Inc. has presented Donna Stoughton with its Lifetime Achievement Award in recognition for her many years and number of contributions to the industry. Stoughton, who recently retired from WL Plastics, was the first woman to chair the organization’s board of directors since it was founded in 1950. During her 20-year affiliation with PPI, Stoughton served and chaired numerous technical and other committees, and was featured in PLASTICS NEWS as one of the “Women Breaking the Mold.”
PPI President David M. Fink presented the award during the group’s annual membership meeting held in Maui during May. “I have had the pleasure of knowing and working with Donna at PPI. Her intelligence and drive to make this industry better and better have always been strong. Whether it has been as a leader or a participant, she contributed so very much. Just a few of the positions she held were our board chair, Vice Chair of the board, and the PPI Umbrella Marketing Committee Chair plus the Chair of the Municipal and Industrial Division (MID). In addition, Donna has represented PPI at the United States Conference of Mayors, the Mayors Water Council and at numerous trade shows and conferences at ASCE, ASTM and AWWA.
In addition to volunteering at PPI, Stoughton was Vice President of Sales and Marketing for 29 years at Charter Plastics, and then Vice President of the northeast region for WL Plastics after it purchased Charter in 2021.
