IOM3, through its evolution over 150 year,s has brought together a wide range of disciplines and communities.
The IOM3 Packaging Group (formerly the Packaging Society) traces its roots back to the Institute of Packaging. This network provides people with knowledge, information and best practices on all aspects of packaging materials and technologies enabling considered choices, good design and more sustainable packaging. The group helps provide an understanding of the key role packaging materials have in reducing food waste and in working towards a net-zero society.
For networking locally in your area, our affiliated local societies organise events around the UK and a number of these groups specialise in packaging.
We also have a number of groups within IOM3 focussed on supporting members in specific ways – providing networks for people in the early stages of their career and for minority groups within our profession.
Whatever your experience, background or needs, we have a community where you will be made welcome.
