Working with Brand Owners to Meet Sustainability Goals
Calling all Package Design Engineers, Sustainability Managers, Product and Market Managers, and Procurement Managers!
APR firmly believes that companies want to design packaging that is recyclable and sustainable. With the APR Design® for Plastics Recyclability Training Program, our experts will walk your team through the design process, offering customized guidance to meet the unique needs of your company and its products.
APR offers three Training Program options. Learn more below and choose what fits your company’s needs best.

Full On-Site or Virtual Training
Our full on-site or virtual training consists of a detailed schedule that features step-by-step guidance fully customized for your company.
TIMEFRAME: Approximately 6-7 hours.

On-Site or Virtual "Lunch and Learn"
Choose an on-site or virtual "lunch and learn" training that features a customized, albeit abbreviated, opportunity for your team to get expert advice on packaging design.

Regional Training
Our regional programs are a unique way to experience training alongside other brands and package creators. These trainings are scheduled periodically and paired with a live facility tour. The focus is more generalized and is ideal for companies just getting started thinking about recycling design and/or companies on a tight budget. Contact us to be notified of upcoming events of this type.

You don't have to take our word for it.
