  • 1.  Hello, IoPP!

    Posted yesterday
    I'm excited to introduce myself to the IoPP community.
    I joined the association on July 1, and, over the past few weeks, I've had the opportunity to work alongside Jane Chase as we prepare for the leadership transition. I'll officially step into the role of President on August 1, and I'm grateful for the chance to learn from Jane while getting to know the IoPP National staff, members, and volunteers who make IoPP such a respected association.
    I've spent much of my career in packaging, plastics, and sustainability, and one thing I've learned is that our industry is strongest when people are willing to share ideas, ask questions, and learn from one another. That's one of the reasons I'm excited to be part of IoPP.
    Over the coming months, I hope to connect with many of you, hear your perspectives, and learn more about what makes this community so valuable. In the meantime, I'd love to hear from you. Introduce yourself below and tell me where you're from, what part of the packaging industry you work in, or what you enjoy most about being part of IoPP.
    I'm looking forward to the conversations ahead.

    Conor,

    Welcome to the IOPP and congratulations. Looking forward to seeing the continued growth of the organization and hope to meet you at the Pack Expo in Chicago.

    I was on the IOPP BOD's for a number of years and also served on the Packaging Management Council. I am a retired Packaging Engineer CPP with over 40 years of experience from Lever Brothers, Revlon, Coke, Union Carbide, Eagle Family Foods, ACH Food and Inland Paperboard. I now have a small consulting company, BL.PKG so still involved in the packaging industry.

    Enjoy yourself and you will meet many great people and understand what drives us and why we thrive on packaging.
