Global Packaging Alliance Holds Annual Meeting in Germany

Global Packaging Alliance® (GPA)
Holds Annual Meeting in Germany






Increasingly shorter product cycles and reaction times are creating more challenges for globally harmonized packaging management. Members of the Global Packaging Alliance® (GPA) addressed this and other issues during their annual meeting held in Hanover, Germany and hosted by rlc | packaging. Representatives from the global consortium of independent, medium-sized packaging manufacturers convened from all over the world to discuss viable solutions to current packaging requirements.

“Swiftness is becoming increasingly important in our industry. Worldwide rollouts of new products need to be faster, secure, and standardized. Globally harmonized packaging management is the key,” explained Hans-Christian Bestehorn, GPA spokesman and CEO of the rlc | packaging group. “The goal is to supply packaging that reliably meets high-quality standards, offers unique added value, and is produced in accordance with the strictest safety regulations.” more
