Craig Mason was recognised by the Women in Packaging Excellence Awards 2026.

The awards night celebrates the achievements of women and allies driving innovation, sustainability, and leadership across the packaging industry in the UK and beyond.

Congratulations on winning the Male Ally of the Year award, Craig!

The judges praised Craig's commitment to supporting women in the workplace, helping drive meaningful cultural change and creating initiatives that have delivered lasting impact. His dedication to building a more inclusive industry makes him a truly deserving winner.

The entire team have been very supportive, and we celebrate this award together. Craig says,

"This award recognises the hard work of the Board, my team and the Women’s Forum to address women’s issues at Cepac. It makes obvious business sense to support the excellent women in the business with initiatives such as leadership training, mentorship, and policy development, including enhanced maternity pay and menopause support. We aim to retain and attract more female talent in future, and we will continue to work towards achieving that goal"

—Craig Mason, Group Resources Director (People & Services) at Cepac.
