The Packaging Education Forum will induct five packaging professionals into the Packaging Hall of Fame during its annual Packaging Leadership Awards ceremonies, held on 5 November, in conjunction with Pack Expo in Chicago.
This year's inductees are Richard Botsch (posthumously), Kenneth Gollmann, Thomas Hogue, Norman Nieder and Charles Perrin.
"PEF members voted to induct these five highly capable, dedicated packaging professionals into the Packaging Hall of Fame based on their professional achievement and commitment to packaging education," commented Ben Miyares, president of the Packaging Education Forum.
"The entire packaging industry will honour their career efforts at the PEF Packaging Leadership Awards ceremonies in November."
The inductees, chosen by the PEF membership from a field of nine nominees this year, were selected for their involvement in expanding packaging education and technology, as well as for their leadership skills within the business.
