Eco Flexibles Completes Chain Of Custody Audit Eco Flexibles, a Daventry, UK-based sustainable flexible packaging business, has completed a recent Forest Stewardship Council (FSC) Chain of Custody audit. The results of the audit show zero instances of non-conformance in its recyclable paper and fi- bre supply chain, reportedly the highest standard achievable. FSC is an independent organization established to support environmentally appropriate, socially ben- eficial and economically viable management of the world’s forests. The Chain of Custody path documents the jour- ney taken by material substrates in the packaging industry, and includes each stage of sourcing, pro- cessing, trading and distribution. Achieving zero instances of non-conformance shows that the company’s systems and processes for sourcing, tracking and labeling its products are in compliance with FSC standards. FLAG Achieves Record Membership In 2022 FLAG (Flexo Label Advantage Group, LLC) wel- comed a record 21 new members in 2022, the high- est number of new members the group has wel- comed in a calendar year in FLAG’s 13-year history. “Independent label converters continue to be a driving force in the narrow-web market, and FLAG is honored to have the opportunity to support 21 additional label businesses,” said FLAG President, JC McKay. Founded in 2010 by John McKay, FLAG serves independent label converters in the narrow web marketplace. Members reportedly realize the type of benefits usually enjoyed by larger multi-site con- verting conglomerates. These include bottom-line savings, catastroph- ic recovery plans, penetrating new markets and application niches, and having access to new re- sources. FLAG will once again bring its members and vendor partners together for learning opportuni- ties, networking, and a Member facility tour of Traco Packaging at is upcoming Annual Meeting, which will take place in Salt Lake City, Utah, April 18-21, 2023.
