Greetings All, The first half of 2023 has been very active. Numerous shows including Metpack in Germany and Craft Brewers in Nashville were well attended and showed the strength and innovation of the Metal Packaging Industry on full display.
The breakthrough for beverage can coating
The Summer/Fall lineup looks very good as well with: • LATAM CAN July 12-14 in Mexico City • IMDPA September 26-28, in Itasca IL near Chicago. • Canmaker Summit in Edinburgh Scotland - October 11-12 • Asia CanTech in Bangkok October 30-November 1st. I want to send a special thank you to both John Hrdlick and Renee Schouten from INX as John is moving onto retirement and Renee has resigned from the IMDPA Board of Directors. Both have dedicated many years and countless hours of service and support to the IMDPA. We wish them all the best in their new endeavors. With John and Renee leaving the Association we are looking for some volunteers to help run some of our committees. If you are able to help, please contact me at John.clark@Heraeus.com or Mike Masenior at info@metaldecorators.org Our goals for 2023 are: • Bring more value and expand the membership of the IMDPA. • Update the website and make it a more interactive tool for our members. • Develop a Technical Library for our Members to access and use to their benefit. • Review and simplify our strategic plan and realign our committees to focus on providing Value to our Membership. • Reconnect with University Programs and Packaging Schools and other outside associations we can partner with. The Conference Committee, headed up by Tim Duca from Canpack has done an incredible job putting together another great Conference Sept 26-28, 2023 at the Eaglewood Resort in Itasca IL. Our Keynote Speakers includes Gus Reall, CEO of Stolle Machinery and John Wilhelm of Monster. We also have a very strong 2Piece, Flat Sheet, Manufacturing and Thursday morning Session lined up. We look forward to seeing you all for another great IMDPA conference in Chicago in September.
