The Flexographic Technical Assocition has announced its CPC Awareness Campaign, designed to educate consum- er product companies and brand owners on the technical aspects of flexographic printing while increasing engage- ment with the Association and its membership through ac- tive participation at its in-person events. The Campaign, under the slogan “Your Quality Is Our Concern,” kicked off July 13. A total of 25 CPCs joined an hour-long, Town Hall-style meeting focused on FTA’s com- mitment to improving brand owners’ print quality. A pair of guest speakers touched on the importance of CPC involvement in the package production process. Brand owners expressed concerns and discussed some of the common packaging issues they deal with, includ- ing color matching to registration. And FTA staff offered a look at how participation at Association conferences and exhibitions, along with its industry leading FIRST Certifica- tion program, can improve their print quality and empower their packaging departments. Many of the CPCs in attendance — including Target, Sargento, Refresco, 3M, Georgia-Pacific and others — will be at Fall Technical Conference 2023, October 9-11 in Lou- isville, Kentucky and FORUM & INFOFLEX 2024, May 5-8 in Kansas City, Missouri.
