Reviews from Former Participants

Whether you are a beginner in plastics and flexible packaging or have several years in the industry, this is a course where everyone can learn something new! Anja and Kirsten’s combined experience in packaging development and chemistry creates a wide range around how to design flexible packaging for recycling, and they convey this in a very educational way. I would have recommended this training to all our suppliers!

Anja and Kirsten have worked practically with many packaging issues, and therefore have a good understanding of the questions a packaging developer might have about plastic packaging. Together they have a very broad and current knowledge of this, which they also convey in a brilliantly educational way. A relevant and action-packed course!

Kirsten and Anja generously share their knowledge and convey it in an inviting way. The course has given me a deeper understanding of the area I work with daily, and I feel that I can navigate better across the breadth and depth of the laminate jungle.
