From the busy harbour of the NPE 2015 our expedition crew has been reviewing all the meetings with the key players of the Canadian and US PET industries on the PETplanet exhibition stand in the South Hall. After resting at anchor awhile in Florida’s tranquil waters, our team of PET bottling Columbuses, consisting of Captain Alexander Büchler, Helmsmen Kay Barton and Waldemar Schmitke, together with Helmsman’s Mate and Able Seaman Rolf Sinkovec, is now steering a course towards the markets of Central USA. Wafted along by gentle zephyrs, the team is embarking on the second part of their voyage of discovery in Texas and will be sailing in a wide arc in the direction of Phoenix, before ultimately cresting the waves along the west coast of the USA, proceeding thence to the west coast of Canada. This is a tour where figures speak louder than words: a total travel distance of around 17,000 km and roughly six months of this thrilling adventure are out there just waiting for you! And, as always, you have the opportunity to accompany the crew interactively by following the entire tour on our weekly travel blog at npe.petpla. net. Please contact us if you would like our editors to make a detour to your own bottling, PET processing, closure cap, material manufacturing or recycling plant. YOU are our story. All aboard!
