Rainer Kuhn, PrintCity managing director, will make a presentation about the work of alliance members on Value Added Packaging at the 2011 ERA Packaging Conference in Graz, Austria, November 17.
The presentation, Value Added Packaging in Offset Printing, will focus on alliance members’ knowledge of opportunities and benefits from applying paper board VAP production techniques in many packaging sectors. After the ERA Annual Congress, this is the second area of cooperation between the ERA and PrintCity.
James Siever, Secretary General for the European Rotogravure Association comments, “The new cooperation between ERA and the PrintCity Alliance is offering access to an increased shared knowledge bank across printing and packaging topics. Members of both ERA and PrintCity will benefit from this.”
