With a score of 94 points, Plastic Omnium won the green jackets after beating second placed Elite Consultancy Network and third placed Powerday, who both scored 86 points.
Waste and recycling professionals from across the industry took part in the event, held on 28 April at the Belfry Hotel and Resort in Warwickshire.
The runner-up for the individual scores went to Allen Smith of CHS Environmental who came in second place with Dave Young of Powerday third.
A total of 26 teams took part in the annual competition, organised by letsrecycle.com and supported by charity Child Bereavement UK, with £1,500 raised by the event being donated to the charity. Over six years, more than £10,000 has been raised for the charity.

A particular highlight from the day was the hole challenges, including: the wheelie bin challenge, sponsored by Egbert Taylor Group; the longest drive challenge, sponsored by Ceris Burns International and the ‘nearest the pin’ challenge, sponsored by Biffa.
Comedian Adger Brown provided the after-dinner entertainment for the event which is now in its sixth year.
