Industry News Editor's Comment
It’s great to have you back reading this month’s issue of Converter, and if it’s your fi rst time, then welcome. This month’s issue has quite a focus on sustainability a refl ection on industry trends. In fact when I visited London Packaging Week just a number of days before fi nalising this edition there were several things which caught my eye. From a range of awards and a look back at the past of packaging, with the Museum of Brands, to incredible new products driving forward sustainability like Frugalpac paperboard bottles. This issue contains features on Drying, Curing and UV, Ink and Ink Dispensers, Reel and Roll Handling, Shrink Sleeve Solutions, Sustainable Converting and Labelling Solutions. Enjoy the read and I hope you join us again next month.
