ECMA Annual Congress 2008

The Beauty of Cartons lies in the many positive aspects of cartons and their role in the attribution of value to the customers products.  To capture this value, obsolete buyer - seller relationships are being redefined into 'collaborative partnerships' across supply chains, and the role the packaging supplier is evolving into one of packaging solution provider.

The Hotel Pullman Marseille Palm Beach located in Marseille has been selected as the venue for this year's annual gathering of European folding carton sector to be held from 17-20 September 2008.

France has a long tradition in luxury FMGG products like wine, confectionery, cosmetics, fashion products.  The Hotel Pullman Palm Beach in Marseille is therefore the perfect venue to highlight the various aspects associated with this theme in terms of design, consumer trends, innovation, colour managment, product security and process integration.  And, of course, ECMA's overall motto: Cartons, sustainability in packaging highlights the natural beauty of cartons! This year's congress programme features a number if first class speakers on the various beauty adding attributes of cartons.
