Web Seminar Details:
The journey begins with a look at wine packaging design considerations, and what happens at the winery to prepare bottles for shipment. We’ll also hear about issues that wineries should be aware of that commonly arise from a carrier’s perspective—and how to address those issues before they affect the wine’s condition. Throughout the discussion, we’ll explore how working together can help ensure the integrity of wine packaging, so that our precious bottle of wine gets to its final destination with its intended characteristics intact!
This web seminar will help introduce IoPP’s forming task group on Wine, Spirits and Beer Packaging!
