PPI Announces New Board of Directors

PPI 2017 Board

The Plastics Pipe Institute Inc recently installed members in new roles on its board of directors. These individuals took office immediately following the group's annual meeting held at the PGA National Resort in Palm Beach Garden, Florida, at which the changes to the executive committee were confirmed.

David Fink of WL Plastics was instated as chairman of the board, a two-year appointment, and part of a six-year commitment in various leadership functions, to the association.

Three new board members were also elected at the meeting: Peter Zut of Krauss-Maffei, vice chairman; Jim Johnson of McElroy Manufacturing, Advisory Council chairman; and Doug Keller of LyondellBasell, treasurer.

The past chairman, Patrick Collings of Lane Enterprises, will conclude his final two-year period of service.

Working with division chairs, the association’s president and legal counsel, all of whom also serve in board capacities, the full group governs PPI.

"As our country's infrastructure faces significant challenges, PPI, its board and all members are committed to helping address imminent and critical needs,” stated Tony Radoszewski, CAE, president of PPI. “The United States, Canada and Mexico are all in dire need of pipe that is long-lasting, economical and has a high degree of integrity. PPI’s board of directors understands and supports these demands and advocates for the use of various plastic pipe materials at the local, state and federal level.”

Fink is a longtime PPI member who also serves on several committees within PPI and has worked within the industry broadly since 2008.

"PPI continues to be a great forum for the common good of the industry and a proponent for innovations in infrastructure," he said. "One of the board’s key goals is extending PPI’s educational outreach programs, where members serve as mentors, helping train the next generation of engineers. This powerful base will enable communities to go far beyond fixing leaky and harmful pipelines and implement sustainable, cost-effective, favorable solutions."

The chairs of the five PPI divisions participating on the board are: Building & Construction: Don Townley, Lubrizol; Corrugated Plastic Pipe: Greg Bohn, Advanced Drainage Systems, Inc.; Energy Piping Systems: Dane Chang of Dow Chemical; Municipal and Industrial: Heath Casteel of Chevron Phillips Chemical Company; Power and Communications: Yonas Kebede of Formosa Plastics.
