Kristi is the President of Plastics Forming Enterprises (PFE). PFE is an internationally recognized leader in recyclability testing and design for recycling consultation, working with some of the largest brands in the world toward achieving packaging circularity goals.

As an industry leader, Kristi brings the experience and vision that will enable PFE to continue to evolve with the rapidly changing packaging industry. As a design engineer and 18 years of engineering experience in both the structural fiber and plastics industries, she brings extensive technical knowledge in my leadership role. Amongst her professional accomplishments, she has installed, started-up, and trained the commercial, quality control laboratories for food-grade PET recycle facilities.

These roles have allowed her to work closely with the clientele to better understand the recycling community and the challenges that material selection and product design have on the recycle steam quality.

PFE will continue to lead in testing and design consultation, but also support the industry as it moves to address the emerging opportunities in the recycling process, mitigating ocean plastics, and improving the image of plastics.
