Flint hosts AWA shrink label seminar

The workshop, Introduction to Heat Shrink Sleeve Label Technologies, is designed to provide an all-round briefing along with workshop activities presented by Flint Group and other industry suppliers.

Two workshop sessions have been scheduled – each being a full two day program. They are complete with presentations and hands-on activities hosted by Flint Group and Accraply:

Workshop A: 

Tuesday & Wednesday, June 24 & 25

Workshop B:

Thursday & Friday, June 26 & 27

Workshop B will be presented with simultaneous Spanish translation.

The seminar is supported by industry partners – Accraply, Bonset America, Esko, Polysack Flexible Packaging, and Flint Group.   

Program leader Dr. William Llewellyn, vice president and senior consultant, AWA Alexander Watson Associates, said: ‘With the significant support and participation of leading international companies in this growing technology arena, we have been able to create a very special opportunity for anyone who needs or wants to gain a sound education in heat shrink sleeves.’

Deanna Whelan, global marketing manager for Flint Group, commented: ‘Flint Group welcomes the opportunity to, again, open its facility to AWA and our co-supplier partners to increase awareness of this growing label application.  Seminar attendees will see, first-hand, the printing of shrink labels using UV flexo LED technology – a revolutionary process supporting a growing market segment.  We are excited to be a part of this growing market segment and thrilled to exhibit the future of narrow web printing.’

Participants will take away a printed manual, featuring all the presentations and other useful information for future reference; and, as well as providing a full two-day learning agenda, the event is an opportunity for peer networking and extending personal contacts across the industry.

Registration is open and space is limited. For additional information please contact Deanna Whelan at 763-398-2716 or email deanna.whelan@flintgrp.com.
