The Paperboard Packaging Council (PPC) on May 17 - 18 will host its first Folding Carton Boot Camp workshop for the year at PPC headquarters in Springfield, Mass., USA. The Folding Carton Boot Camp, PPC notes, "is ideal for anyone new to carton construction (even if not new to the industry) as well as non-plant personnel with limited experience outside of a single plant operation.
PPC explained that the program mirrors the packaging production process, moving from how paper is made to inks and coatings, prepress, CAD, layout, graphics, presses, tooling, embossing, stamping, stripping, finishing, gluing, windowing, and automatic packaging equipment. Participants are awarded a certificate of achievement at the end of the session.
"Boot Camp is a fantastic opportunity for employees unfamiliar with the complete boxmaking process," says PPC's president Ben Markens. "Each time we've hosted this event, company leaders tell us the experience was invaluable in creating and maintaining a more well-rounded and informed staff."
The Folding Carton Boot Camp is open to both PPC members and non-members. More information and registration is available online.
