Every year about a half-million visitors walk through the Chicago Children’s Museum located at Navy Pier. One of the displays in the museum’s Inventing Lab Exhibit traces the evolution of Hi-Cone plastic ring carriers. The display shows a timeline of ring carrier development from the first product through subsequent changes that made the    
 

packaging material friendlier to consumers and the environment. The same display also is located in the lobby of Hi-Cone’s corporate headquarters in Itasca, Ill.

“The Hi-Cone display is unique because it speaks to both the innovative notion of inventing but also reinventing,” said Angie Vellez, director of guest connections for Chicago Children’s Museum.
