FPA announces 2019 board of directors

Curt Begle, president of the health, hygiene and specialties division of Berry Global, is the new chairperson of the FPA board of directors. Begle succeeds David Staker, president and CEO at Plastic Packaging Technologies, who served as chairperson of the FPA board of directors from March 2018 to March 2019.

The 2019 board of directors were elected by FPA voting members via ballot for a one-year term, with the exception of the chairperson’s two-year term, and assumed their directorship on March 6, 2019, during the FPA 2019 annual meeting in Scottsdale, Arizona.

The 2019 board is comprised of industry leaders from 35 flexible packaging companies. Newly appointed directors include Jarred Carter, Siegwerk USA, and Mark Forman, Belmark.

‘Their industry experience and proven business leadership will serve the association well,’ said Begle.
