So SGS teamed up with Flint Group and went through Flint Group’s FlexoExpert Certification Program. After a review, training and audit process, SGS locations in McBee, South Carolina; Marietta, Georgia; Appleton, Wisconsin; Brooklyn Park, Min- nesota; Mississauga, Ontario, Canada; and Philadel- phia, Pennsylvania, have received the FlexoExpert Certification. This program is being implemented globally for SGS, and more sites are currently in the process of gaining certification.
