involved in the work of FEFCO. His priorities for the coming years are to concentrate on
strengthening the organisation and continuing the best practices policy. “It is my goal to
develop industry standards and guidelines and to continue to provide services whenever
appropriate. FEFCO sees itself today as a service organisation for its members; I want to
continue that path. I am very honoured and I look forward to contributing to the analysis

prospect of the corrugated industry”.
