best in show Beatson’s show success
Leading glass packaging manufacturer, Beatson Clark, showcased its diverse range of products to an excited audience at two recent industry exhibitions. With glass being the natural choice for anyone thinking about environmentally friendly packaging, the company’s stand was inundated with interested visitors eager to see just how versatile the material can be. Charlotte Taylor, Beatson Clark’s marketing manager, said: “With many visitors attending both the Pro2Pac and EasyFairs exhibitions, we were delighted to showcase
our latest designs and deliver an outstanding presentation of our products and services to hundreds of people. Our newly developed stand was created to display and draw attention to the benefits of using glass, a material that is infinitely recyclable. Visitors were really impressed with the creative designs that can be produced using glass particularly that of our Rubic and Flame family of containers.” Beatson Clark’s visitors were also impressed with the company’s latest embossed beer bottle designs.
