FLEXcon Supports the Sustainable Green Printing Partnership; Presents at First Annual Community Gathering During SGIA Expo

FLEXcon, an innovator in adhesive coating and laminating, today announced that it is a platinum sponsor of the Sustainable Green Printing Partnership (SGP), helping to support SGP's mission to encourage and promote participation in the worldwide movement to reduce environmental impact. SGP aims to increase social responsibility of the graphic communications industry through certification and continuous improvement of sustainability and best practices within manufacturing operations. FLEXcon will participate in the first annual SGP Community Gathering in Las Vegas at the LV Convention Center, which is co-located with the SGIA Expo. This meeting brings together buyers, printers, and suppliers within the print industry to discuss, debate, and learn about the growing trends of sustainability.

Jodi Sawyer, Market Development Specialist for FLEXcon's Product Branding business team, will join the panel, "Sustainabl Media - Does It Exist?" at 1:45 p.m. PDT on Thursday, October 23.

"FLEXcon takes its role in the graphic communications industry seriously, which is why we not only encourage customers to reduce, replace and rethink traditional products with 'greener' solutions, we make it our goal to deliver them," said Sawyer. "From at-retail and durable labeling to primary labeling, we are always available to discuss the greenest possible alternatives to meet specific application requirements."

FLEXcon, who is also a L.I.F.E certified and ISO 9001:2008 manufacturer, for more than 50 years has been dedicated to conducting business with integrity. This extends beyond delivering eco-friendly products, while also focusing on creating an environment that is safe and healthy for employees and the community.
