The Australian Institute of Packaging (AIP) in partnership with Informa Markets, will be running an interactive workshop on
|
“Flexible Packaging, Conversion and Printing: Current & Future Challenges, Barriers & Opportunities”
|
|
|
One of the fastest growing segments of the packaging industry, flexible packaging combines the best qualities of plastic, film, paper and aluminium foil to deliver a broad range of protective properties while employing a minimum of material. Typically taking the shape of a bag, pouch, liner, or overwrap, flexible packaging is defined as any package or any part of a package whose shape can be readily changed.
|
Leading the way in packaging innovation, flexible packaging adds value and marketability to food and non-food products alike. From ensuring food safety and extending shelf life, to providing even heating, barrier protection, ease of use, resealability and superb printability, the industry continues to advance at an unprecedented rate.
|
The workshop will be moderated by Joe Foster FAIP, the Chief Executive Officer of the Global company Close the Loop Group who has been heavily involved in the flexible packaging industry for over 35 years with experience in engineering, Production, Technical, sales and marketing. Joe has a truly global view of the flexible packaging world having started his career in Ireland and also working in Zimbabwe, South Africa and Australia. Flexible packaging has always been his passion and Joe will be able to share his extensive knowledge and understanding of this ever-changing market as we see constant challenges from production constraints through to environmental impacts.
