Announcing the 2026 Hall of Fame Wisconsin Titan 100 Recipients

Titan CEO and headline sponsors Associated Bank and Wipfli LLP are pleased to announce Nick Murray, President, Redline Plastics as a 2026 Wisconsin Titan 100 Honoree. The Titan 100 program recognizes Wisconsin’s Top 100 CEOs & C-level executives. They are the area’s most accomplished business leaders in their industry using criteria that include demonstrating exceptional leadership, vision, and passion.  Collectively, the 2026 Wisconsin Titan 100 and their companies employ over 64,000 individuals and generate over $14 billion in annual revenues. This year’s honorees will be published in a limited-edition Titan 100 book and profiled exclusively online. They will be honored at the annual awards ceremony on January 29th, 2026, and will be given the opportunity to interact and connect multiple times throughout the year with their fellow Titans.

Titan award recipients are allowed to make the Titan 100 list for up to three years, with each year getting progressively more difficult. To make it to the Hall of Fame, Titans must complete on-camera interviews and answer a series of questions where they do not know what will be asked in front of a live judging committee.  The Titan 100 Hall of Fame are a class of elite executives that have consistently shown over the past three years their ability to demonstrate the characteristics of a Titan who is a pillar of our community.

This year’s Titan 100 embody the true diversity of Wisconsin’s business landscape. Representing construction, marketing & advertising, financial services, food & beverages, information technology & services, and non-profit sectors, among others.

“Wisconsin’s Titan 100 are redefining business with vision and purpose, setting new standards for growth, innovation, and impact. These trailblazing leaders inspire transformation across industries, uplift communities, and drive meaningful change. We proudly celebrate their legacy of excellence and unwavering commitment to shaping a brighter future for all,” says Jaime Zawmon, President of Titan CEO.

Nick Murray’s entrepreneurial journey began in the poultry industry, where he quickly rose through the ranks to lead diverse teams and oversee complex operations. His ability to blend strategy with hands-on leadership caught attention early — setting the stage for his future in manufacturing.

Transitioning into the marine segment of his current organization, Nick played a pivotal role in driving growth and innovation. He later led the transformation of the company’s plastics division into Redline Plastics, positioning it as a fast-growing leader in rotational molding, thermoforming, and industrial sewing.

Under his leadership, Redline has achieved incredible growth, expanded its facilities, and completed a strategic acquisition that extended the company’s national footprint. Promoted to President in 2022, Nick continues to champion a culture of excellence, innovation, and people-first leadership.

In recognition of his impact, Nick was honored as a 2025 Wisconsin TITAN 100 and named a Plastics News 2025 Rising Star — achievements that reflect his relentless drive and commitment to shaping the future of manufacturing.

“Being recognized as a Titan for the second year in a row is truly an honor, but it’s a reflection of the incredible team at Redline Plastics. Our success comes from a culture of grit, innovation, and genuine care for one another — and I couldn’t be prouder of what we’re building together.”
