AICC Recognizes (CONT’D FROM PAGE 20)

of Michigan State University, Third Place winner. Due to the challenges students continued to face in 2021 because of Covid-19, AICC modified its competition. Students had to create and design a “Quarantine Survival Kit,” a self-shipper box that would be sent to a friend or relative during a quarantine. Structurally, the task was to build a box that could safely ship one 10.75-ounce can of soup, one sleeve of crackers, one 12-ounce bag of coffee, and one 8-ounce container of hand sanitizer. Graphically, teams needed to design the exterior and interior of the box, including creating their own company and logo, and give the customer a “wow” factor when unboxing. The First Place winners were Logan Vinson, Thomas Breslin, Marcus Dodds, and James Linenbrink from Clem- son University. The Second Place winners were Glennith Tran, Maria Tran, Odalys Carranza, and Karina Oviedo from the University of Texas at Arlington. There was a tie for third place between the teams of Tucker Nelson, Tyler Kirkland, Wil Gates and Nick Miller from Clemson Univer- sity and Brooke Oleta Selby, Afia Azeemuddin, Dai Vuong, and Tien Tran from the University of Texas at Arlington. The J. Richard Troll Memorial Scholarship Fund was es- tablished to honor the memory of the late J. Richard Troll, a founder of the AICC and ICPF.

Do you need printed sheets? We have your answer.. Introducing Heartland’s ColorCorr. This is “flexo-printing in the round”. On our corrugator we can print up to 109” wide. The advantage is that we can print the equivalent of ½ roll at a time and not be required to keep several rolls of very expensive preprinted paper on the floor. Much less waste and risk. In continual print mode, we use either laser-engraved rubber rolls or solid rubber rolls to print a “flood coat” or a repeating pattern. If we are printing a repeating pattern, we can run a two-color design on the paper. Customers have found that running sheets we print can allow them to run a lighter-grade due to reduced caliper loss, and in some cases eliminate one or more machine passes.
