Enercon: Award for Best in Session Presentation
Leaders from the converting industry gathered August 3-7th at the Rosen Centre Hotel in Orlando, Florida for the 2003 TAPPI PLACE Conference and Global Hot Melt Symposium. The event featured presentations from many industry experts on a host of topics including extrusion coating, additives, and knowledge management. At the end of the conference, attendees were surveyed and asked to choose the best session. Out of thirty-five sessions, Enercon Industries’ Rory Wolf received the 2003 Al Davis Session Developer Award for his session titled Converter Spotlight.
Wolf developed and moderated the session while working with the PLACE marketing committee to formulate other session aspects. The session included ten speakers from leading packaging converting companies, each discussing what suppliers can do to accelerate the product development process when working with converters.
At a separate session during the PLACE conference, Wolf went on to outline recent developments in atmospheric plasma, enhanced chemical vapor deposition and the new functional process for delivering high performance coatings. Wolf is a three-year member of the TAPPI organization as well as a member of the TAPPI PLACE Division Council and the Chairperson on their Marketing Committee.
