I work in this market as well for an even bigger company, it is very hard to get companies this large to take risks so be aware you need thick skin and a lot of research knowledge. The neat thing about it is that literally millions of people all over the world use your design per day, and if you have made their life better through it, you have done your job.
You also get a lot of flack about supposed “non-recyclable” or “non-sustainable” materials, so you have to become well educated to “defend” your job and products to outsiders. Public perception drives decisions, even to using materials that end up having a larger carbon footprint than the material being replaced.
