The Pressure Sensitive Tape Council (PSTC) is pleased to announce this year’s inductees into the PSTC Hall of Fame. PSTC’s Hall of Fame recognizes those individuals whose personal commitment and accomplishments have helped to grow the pressure sensitive adhesive (PSA) tape industry as well as PSTC.

Hall of Fame honorees were formally announced during the PSTC Annual Meeting 2012 in Palm Beach Gardens, FL, on November 8.

2012 Hall of Fame inductees are:

  • Patrick K. Deconinck, Senior Vice President, West Europe, 3M
