The Merseyside Packaging Society visit to Avanti Blue, Heywood Lancashire

We have heard a lot about the problems caused by plastic packaging but what about the benefits? Avanti Blue are a well established company producing a wide range of plastic filmic products from binliners to bags using virgin, recycled polymers and compostable materials. They also convert foils and films to retail packs and produce and develop a wide range of other products made from polymers, see their website for more details as the range is too large to give it justice in this notice!

This is a great opportunity to talk to product developers as well as seeing the manufacturing processes involved. Following an introduction to the company, its products and manufacturing techniques, visitors will be allowed a short tour of the facilities. Please wear your own safety gear, if you have it.

We are grateful to Avanti Blue for agreeing to host this event but space is limited to the first 15 people who respond to this callin notice.
