Operation Clean Sweep (OCS) was launched in 1991 as a campaign dedicated to helping every plastic resin handling operation achieve zero plastic resin loss. The Plastics Industry Association (PLASTICS) and the American Chemistry Council (ACC) invite United States based companies to support OCS and ensure the principles of stewardship are embraced by everyone handling plastics materials.
