Launched in November 2017, the website offers a comprehensive understanding of the group’s mission of ensuring female employees in the packaging industry are equipped with the right tools to ensure their future success in the vibrant industry.
Joanna Stephenson, said: “We’re continually developing new and more effective ways to engage with women so we’re delighted to announce the launch of our new website. We have designed it to be easy to use ensuring it reflects Women in Packaging’s importance in the industry in providing the right level of support, training and recognition.”
The industry group supports and encourages female employees in roles across all material substrates, process and packaging applications, and across the supply chain from designer to retailer within the packaging industry. The website provides useful content to help visitors learn more about Women in Packaging UK, including an area for mentoring.
Further content is divided into convenient sections enabling employees to find exactly what they are looking for, while the website’s responsive design provides an optimal viewing experience across all touchpoints.
The new website launch coincides with the announcement of two new networking events in 2018. The first event takes place at the Doubletree, Hilton Hotel in Leeds on Tuesday, January 23, starting at 6pm. The following event is scheduled to take place in Birmingham to coincide with Packaging Innovations 2018. Women in Packaging UK will meet at the Skybar, Resorts World Birmingham, NEC, on Wednesday, February 28, starting at 6.30 pm.
