A company tour which was offered during the lunch break as well as a common cross-country run of 5 km for the sportive attendees of the event rounded off the day around “healthy packaging”.

This year’s present was a food safe packaging which was produced at rlc | packaging group and sponsored by Sappi (Algro Design®, 350 g/m2) and Marbach (stamping tools) with a high refining grade (two UV FP lacquers of WEILBURGER Graphics with a “laser gloss” hologram effect embossed in the second lacquer component). The packaging was filled with a ham specialty of the Franconian acorn-fed pig as well as with the new product manual of WEILBURGER Graphics regarding food conformity.
