With new procedures, technologies and regulations in place, the packaging industry continues to evolve. To assist members in coping with expanding information, TAPPI’s PLACE (Polymers, Laminations, Adhesives, Coatings, and Extrusions) division has partnered with MultiBriefs to create the new PLACE Weekly Wrap-Up, an e-mail resource providing comprehensive weekly news briefings of the week’s top industry stories.

Each edition of the PLACE Weekly Wrap-Up contains articles gathered from an expansive list of sources, including The Associated Press, The New York Times, USA Today and plus the latest from TAPPI.  Delivered to the inboxes of industry professionals each week, this newsletter is a great way to stay informed.

The electronic publication can be easily read in multiple ways - in office, at home, or via mobile phone or PDA. Archived issues are available through a link on the TAPPI PLACE home page (www.tappi.org/place) under Educational Resources.

The PLACE Weekly Wrap-Up is powered by MultiBriefs, a division of MultiView Inc. Exclusively serving the association sector, MultiView creates new forums for association-specific online media and information.

“We understand that as the packaging industry evolves, it’s becoming increasingly more important for TAPPI’s PLACE division to keep their members informed. PLACE Weekly Wrap-Up has been designed with the needs of PLACE members in mind,” said Kristi Ledbetter, Converting Division Manager at TAPPI. “We look forward to delivering the news and information that members have asked for.”
