The Converter September 2016 digital issue is out now!

Editor’s comment: “Hopefully feeling refreshed and relaxed after the summer period, September is the time to kick-start a new season of business… And what better way than with a handful of industry-focussed exhibitions to whet our appetites for what’s to come in the near future. Packaging Innovations & Luxury Packaging takes place in London and provides a special insight into, as the name suggests, the higher-end of the packaging spectrum. Elsewhere, the PPMA Total Show at the NEC in Birmingham looks at the machinery that enables the production of such clever and useful package offerings.

“Also this month, the specialist RotoMetrics Open House event takes place at the company’s West Midlands site, once again offering a quality line-up of speakers to enthuse and excite visitors. Read our special previews of all these events from page 8.

“We have some great exclusive stories in this issue; I spoke with Parkside about the company’s latest handy food packaging solutions to enable easier, more hygienic sharing among consumers. ABBYY also discusses the importance of future investment in automated, fully reliable print inspection software.”
