In the Spotnight: Garmet Bremner - A Member Mosaic with Industry Mentors

Print Print this article | Send to Colleague


TAPPI Member Garnet Bremner describes TAPPI as a "mosaic" of individuals whose depth of experience and knowledge creates a wonderful atmosphere for finding outstanding mentors.

Bremner now works as an industry consultant for an air, water, & energy solutions and services provider. He began his pulp and paper industry career in a mill engineering role in Canada. Eventually, he successfully worked into deinking supervisory positions, also working to rebuild recycling mills, and then finally serving as a mill manager himself. Bremner has been an active TAPPI member, participating in officer roles on various committees and as a program chairman. Currently, he is serving as the PMD program chair for the PEERS 2012 conference being held October 14-18 at the Marriott Riverfront in Savannah, Ga., USA.

Learn more about the upcoming PEERS Conference.


Bremner says that having a short list of contacts from mill operations, academics, R&D fields, equipment vendors, chemical vendors, automation vendors, and consultants of all types of expertise provided him with a support group to help with challenges.
