Lifetime Achievement Awards

Each spring, the OGMA recognizes individuals who have made lifelong or outstanding contributions to the glass and metal industry throughout their professional careers.

Significant accomplishments through the OGMA (or its predecessor MTGA), other industry-related associations or through their tenure in the business world are all criteria for consideration. Recipients are nominated by the membership, selected by a committee, and the award is presented at an OGMA spring event.

Nominations may be made by any individual who is, or whose employer is, a member in good standing of the OGMA. The Directors encourage all of our members to take the time to consider the call for nominations that occurs at the beginning of each calendar year.
