Trendtag with an informative mix of topics

On 17 September, the Aktionsforum Glasverpackung invited representatives and decision-makers from commerce and the filling industry to its now well-established industry event for the thirteenth time.

At the Flora in Cologne, in the middle of the Botanical Garden, a mix of informative lectures about the handling of data, information and knowledge in our society, the opportunities and potential for glass packaging and the needs of consumers awaited the participants.

Oliver Wiegand, Vice President of BV Glas, welcomes the guests to the Glass Trend Day 2019

Wiegand-Glas was represented by the segment and sales managers as well as by the two managing directors Nikolaus and Oliver Wiegand. Oliver Wiegand, who is also Vice President of the Bundesverband Glasindustrie, presented the guests with the results of a study carried out by an independent institute, which dealt with the question of how recyclability works for the entire glass packaging process, including labelling and closure of the container.

For Carsten Wiegand, segment manager for beer, non-alcoholic beverages/juice & milk, the event was successful in every respect. "The level at which selected topics were discussed was very good, as were the lectures themselves. Aside from this, what I personally like is the fact that this very Trendtag offered numerous opportunities for discussions with customers and interested parties from the industry."
