David Nix | Green Group Consulting
David Nix is the president and owner of Green Group Consulting. In his 34-year career in the plastics industry, his focus has been on polypropylene and recycling. He began his professional life working for two of the largest polyolefin producers in the world, LyondellBasell (Himont/Montell) and Braskem (Epsilon/Sunoco). In his 18 years with these corporations, he held positions in sales, marketing, product development, product management, production, asset management, sustainability, and recycling.
After building experience in the plastic industry, David started a small recycling business and contracted with various privately owned companies. His expertise and skill set helped him develop a large customer base that routinely relied on his technical knowledge. A pivotal role in David’s career was a return to Braskem as the Sustainability and Recycling Leader for the United States. He relished the opportunity to create recycling programs for a large corporation that could begin to make big impacts in the use of recycled resin.
Continuing his vision for greater recycled resin usage and positively impacting the world, David and his son Harrison Nix started Green Group Consulting. This consulting business interfaces with all aspects of the plastics value chain. They work with MRFs, collectors, equipment manufacturers, additive producers, mechanical and chemical reprocessors, compounders, converters, brand owners, and investors.
David holds a degree in Chemical Engineering from Vanderbilt University and an MBA from the McColl School of Business at Queens University of Charlotte.
