ENVIRONMENTAL PROTECTION
AGENCY'S 33/50 PROGRAM CERTIFICATE OF APPRECIATION:

Packaging Inc. a Certificate of Appreciation acknowledging the corporation's

OZONE DEPLETING
SUBSTANCES:
Environmental Protection Agency rules requiring the labeling of products that
contain or are manufactured with Class I ozone depleting substances went into
effect May 15, 1993. In order to proactively respond to these rules, Green Bay
Packaging, beginning in mid 1992, evaluated all raw materials that were
incorporated into its finished products, for not only Class I but also Class II
ODS compounds. All respective vendors and suppliers were formally advised that
Green Bay Packaging would not accept any raw materials containing or
manufactured with either Class I or Class II ozone depleting substances. Class
II compounds are to be regulated no later than January 1, 2015. All products
identified as containing such were eliminated from use.
