CCL Label Sleeve Training Day
On the 22nd of June CCL Label Decorative Sleeves held a Sleeve “University” training day at its site in King’s Lynn in Norfolk. The course was attended by over 20 people from Unilever, Pepsico and Britvic Soft Drinks and all were from a technical and packaging function.
