Super Bingo!
Comes to an end…
Congratulations to John and Carmen, our overall Bingo winners!!! John and Carmen filled out their entire bingo sheets.
We also had several traditional bingo winners in both locations, filling out one column or row.
Our company-wide bingo competition started all the way back in March! Every team member at Packaging Personified received a card, and daily trivia was posted in each location.
A special thank you to Veronika for the creativity and for organizing such a fun activity for everyone to participate in!
We cant wait to start yellin’ bingo next year!

Congratulations on 10 years, Laura! Our customers and the entire Packaging Personified team appreciate your detailed support and dedication.
“There are not enough words to express how much the PPI Team and I appreciate Laura for everything over the past 10 years. I remember our interview and leaving that conversation knowing she would be someone that would be a great addition to the team. Even better, she continues to exceed the high expectations I had!
Thank you for everything, Laura. I look forward to 10 more years together!”
May The 4th Visitors
The force is strong with Packaging Personified. Controlling the manufacturing process, starting with blowing film, then printing and through the finishing process, gives us greater control of our quality and flexibility in supporting our customers.
“This is the flexible packaging you’re looking for.”
New Equipment and Projects
Inline Press Installation
A big thank you to our Maintenance, Extrusion, and Press teams for the successful installation of our new inline press!
We are excited about the upgrade and its potential to help our team drive quality and efficiency improvements!
Preparing For The New Press
Coming soon…
“We’re eagerly anticipating our new eight-color Koenig & Bauer Evo XG Mod 140 flexographic press,” says Joe Imburgia, Packaging Personified’s General Manager. “This is a key part of our $10 million spend in the past 18 months.”
Annual Sales Meeting
It was great getting the team together for the 2 days for our annual sales meeting!
A special thank you to the production, administrative, and quality management teams participation in sharing continuous improvement projects and quality data.
Teamwork and communication throughout our organization are critical to supporting our customers with quality products and services.
Caption Contest
Thank you to Beth, Theresa, Jill and Chris for their submissions! I threw in a few for good measure…
Raffle winners!
We hope the several groups of raffle winners have enjoyed their time at the games this year.
Unfortunately, as it stands, there’s about a 32% chance they saw a win.
We may have to switch to raffling off away games - that bumps the winning percentage up to 52.
First The Goat then Bartman. Soon fans will be up in arms about PPI’s attendance.
