Signed Sealed and Delivered

Many of us would probably be a bit nervous if faced with the task of transporting a 77 million year old dinosaur over 2,500 kilometres; even if it was dead.Many of us would probably just ask: “why bother?”

Bill Armstrong however is not the kind of man to shrug his shoulders and mutter “hmm, that’s a bit difficult”; Bill just puts his nose to the grindstone, his shoulder to the wheel and calls upon Sealed Air, the American company of which he is technical director.

Bill will be in Valencia from 26^th to 28^th of October at the European Packaging Symposium to explain the details (the dinosaur, who is apparently called ‘Leonard’ unfortunately will not be there; he was safely delivered to NASA in Houston and spent all the journey annoying Bill by asking “are we there yet?”)

The congress is being organised by ITENE and the Safe Transit Association and will be attended by such companies and organisations as Procter & Gamble, DTI, Smurfit Kappa, Hewlett Packard, TETRA PAK, Sealed Air, PIRA, Innventia AB and Michigan State University.

Sources at Sealed Air assure us that neither Leonard nor any other animal was unharmed during the making of the journey, mainly because he is a fossil.
