Harrison, New York based Case Paper announced the ap- pointment of Cass Lundgren as Chief Operating Officer, leading operations at all Case facilities. Lundgren comes to Case with a wide range of expe- rience in different fields. After graduating from The Unit- ed States Military Academy at West Point, he became a commissioned officer and served as an Apache Helicopter Pilot and Company Commander in the 101st airborne divi- sion and was deployed to Kuwait during his service. “Cass has all the qualities we look for in a leader,” said Case Paper President, Simon Schaffer-Goldman. “He un- derstands that leaders work for the teams they lead, not the other way around.

Do you need printed sheets? We have your answer.. Introducing Heartland’s ColorCorr. This is “flexo-printing in the round”. On our corrugator we can print up to 109” wide. The advantage is that we can print the equivalent of ½ roll at a time and not be required to keep several rolls of very expensive preprinted paper on the floor. Much less waste and risk. In continual print mode, we use either laser-engraved rubber rolls or solid rubber rolls to print a “flood coat” or a repeating pattern. If we are printing a repeating pattern, we can run a two-color design on the paper. Customers have found that running sheets we print can allow them to run a lighter-grade due to reduced caliper loss, and in some cases eliminate one or more machine passes.
