The success of last year’s joint meeting of the In-Mold Decorating Association (IMDA; Skokie, IL) and the SPE Decorating & Assembly Division’s Topical Conference (TopCon) has led the two groups to do it again. It will be held June 18 to 20, 2017, at the Lincolnshire Marriott Resort in Lincolnshire, IL.
The 2017 program features papers and workshops focusing on the latest technologies for in-mold labeling (IML) of packaging, in-mold decoration (IMD) of durable products and post-mold decorating and assembly of plastic automotive parts. “We are doubling the number of workshops by adding concurrent TopCon workshops on plastics decorating and assembly topics to the already popular IMDA in-mold labeling and decorating workshops,” said Ron Schultz, President of the IMDA.
