The Neopac US Team is reinforced by one additional team-member: Boris Schaefer, who previously spent ten years at Seidel marketing aluminum components for cosmetics packaging. After that, he worked for MeadWestVaco as a Key Account Manager, selling folding cartons for cosmetics in Europe.

In his new role, Mr. Schaefer will be responsible for managing the cosmetics sector of Neopac's business. His predecessor, Sales Manager Richard Misdom, will now focus entirely on the company's pharmaceutical clients.

“I am very excited to join the Neopac team, said Schaefer. “Neopac is a highly professional, innovative company that adds a personalized touch to each product they produce. I'm impressed by the range of tube applications they offer and look forward to providing Neopac's reliable service and high-quality products to cosmetics clients everywhere.”
