PMMI issues call for presentations

The Packaging Machinery Manufacturers Institute issued an April 9, 2004, deadline for presentations at the Conference at Pack Expo, held in conjunction with Pack Expo International, November 7-11, at Chicago’s McCormick Place.

PMMI encourages presentations from engineering, production, and operations titles that are technology-focused and noncommercial. Proposals that include packaging end users as presenters or co-presenters will be given preferential consideration, says PMMI. Topics of particular interest include RFID, security, anti-counterfeiting, and advances and applications of blow-molded barrier PET containers. For more information, contact Samara Wolf, program coordinator at PMMI, at [email protected], or call 703/243-8555.
