Paper Appreciation Course – special BPIF member rate

The next Paper Appreciation Course (PAC FS12) takes place at The Paper Trail at Apsley in Hemel Hempstead, Hertfordshire on Wednesday 18th July 2018. BPIF members are being offered a special rate and can attend for £172 instead of £215.

The Course Lecturer will again be the ever-popular John Watson.

This course is ideal for both new employees of any level who have commenced employment in the paper & print related industries within the last few months and also for those who have worked in the industries for some little time but have never seen a actual working paper-making machine.

The Paper Trail is a really interesting venue, well deserving of a visit in its own right and is conveniently situated for most of the UK being 25 miles north of London at Hemel Hempstead.

The number of delegates on these courses is usually limited to 12 maximum to ensure quality teaching time for all attending.

This “Paper Appreciation Course” (formerly the NAPM Paper Appreciation Course) is unique in that it focuses on the benefits that paper and its attributes bring to the end-uses. So whilst we discuss the many elements of paper production, at each stage we describe what that part of the process does for the paper.

The key objective of the course is not to produce budding papermakers, but for the delegates to better understand the attributes of the various grades of paper and what they bring to the final products.

This one-day course is ideal for employees who would not normally have the chance to visit a fully working paper mill but are working within the paper merchanting, printing, publishing or associated industries.
