The 2015 National Technical Forums are one of AUSPACK’s greatest drawcards. This year, forty speakers from eight countries will cover the topics that matter to your business across four days, 24 to 27 March.

What are those topics? Private label packaging, chemical migration from packaging into food, lifecycle analysis, design for the ageing and understanding shelf ready packaging are just some of the subjects that will be discussed.

The Forums are not just for business owners and those who've reached the top tier. Why not send your staff along to understand more about the world of packaging.

This year’s theme, Open Innovation & Collaboration, will be the seventh and promises to continue the Forums’ history of successes.
