Are you a long- time member? What value does it bring your company? We started as a sheet plant in 1989 and enjoyed a great association with the AICC and its’ members. After selling our sheet plant in 2006, we started a new company in 2008 as a single face pizza pad/insert manufacturer and we quickly reestablished our ties with the AICC. Being a small converter, the AICC gives us big converter resourc- es. The educational tools now available are priceless, and our relationships are even more important.
