The Australian Institute of Packaging (AIP) will be hosting a virtual tour of Oji Fibre Solutions (OjiFS), one of Australasia’s leading producers of market pulp, paper and fibre-based packaging, on 26 October.
OjiFS has aligned logistics and paper recycling services in New Zealand, which closes the loop on its value chain, and makes it a key contributor to the circular bio-economy.
“The company creates shared value by harnessing the strength of sustainably-managed, NZ-grown radiata pine to produce quality products that are used every day in households and businesses across Australasia, and 30-plus countries around the world,” said Nerida Kelton, executive director of the AIP.
“Part of the Oji Group – the fifth largest pulp and paper conglomerate in the world, OjiFS has the stability, strength and support to grow in the Australasian region.”
During the virtual tour, AIP members will learn more about Oji Fibre Solutions, how its 10 packaging plants and six distribution centres across Australasia support primary industries, and witness how corrugated packaging is manufactured at its 5-star Green Star-rated facility in Yatala.
Also, attendees will have the opportunity to meet and ask questions of some of the OjiFS team, including Wolf Lorenz, general manager packaging Australia; Jason Cairns Lawrence, state sales manager Qld; Sheahan Perera, account manager; Sophie Guenon, quality manager; and Kerwin Ritchie, manufacturing manager.
