and processes are from corrugated sheets all the way to the finished product. Another standout on the tour was the variety of equipment that Rusken uses in those processes. “What I loved about our plant tour was the fact that I could see all the wonderful capabilities of Rusken Pack- aging and what the opportunities could be for my custom- ers,” said Gordon Wright of Rusken Packaging in Knoxville. Students also spent a full day in the Design Lab, both of which generated enthusiastic feedback from students. One noted how quickly Rusken’s team works to turn around designs and samples. “What a fabulous, fabulous class,” said industry partner Cindy Butler. “It takes you from the beginning of the pro- cess all the way through. On top of that you get to see the wonderful facilities at Rusken and how much they have done to increase the technology of a box.”
Rusken University is free for Rusken em- ployees and its customers and partners. Based on interest received so far, a high- er-level course for graduates of the corru- gated basics is also planned. The next ses- sion will be announced on Rusken’s social media platforms and those interested can apply online at www.rusken.com once the enrollment period starts. Rusken plans to host the program twice a year. Seating is limited.
