Edward is one of those people. While performing his routine checks, Edward demonstrated the awareness and judgment that define quality ownership. He took the extra step to verify and ensure everything met the standard we hold ourselves to every day. That decision reflects what being a Quality Champion is all about. Seeing something. Saying something. Choosing ownership. Our Director of Quality, Joe, shared: “Edward embodies what it means to be a Quality Champion. His constant dedication to quality and willingness to pause and ask questions reinforce the standard we hold ourselves to every day. That kind of ownership is what nine years of experience looks like.” To make it even more meaningful, Edward celebrated 9 years at PPI last week. Nine years of consistency, awareness, and commitment to doing things the right way. Edward, thank you for setting the example. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5fb2ea57849bc37616bffefb/c01db7d6-6868-4638-b4fe-18fef5a8a19d/Sangani.jpg Blog - Personified Times - Make it stand out There’s no better way to head into the weekend than recognizing the people who quietly protect the standard. This month, we’re celebrating Sangani as a Quality Champion. With sharp eyes and steady focus, Sangani noticed something that deserved a second look. It was subtle and easy to miss. Instead of moving on, she trusted her instincts and spoke up. That decision reflects what being a Quality Champion is all about. Seeing something. Saying something. Choosing ownership. Our Converting Production Manager, Rob, shared: “Sangani’s attention to detail is exactly what keeps us strong. What she caught was subtle and easy to miss, but she trusted her instincts and spoke up. Because of that, we were able to proactively evaluate the situation and keep everything moving in the right direction. That level of ownership makes a real difference.” Excellence at PPI is not loud. It shows up in moments like this, when someone chooses to pause, ask the extra question, and elevate the standard. Thank you, Sangani, for leading by example. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5fb2ea57849bc37616bffefb/1772142358103-D97E98ZKMDJU9BH0U6J4/asdfdssdaf.jpeg Blog - Personified Times https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5fb2ea57849bc37616bffefb/1772142358254-82RFILQUH3M6M8ZN3FRS/sdafsdads.jpeg Blog - Personified Times https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5fb2ea57849bc37616bffefb/1772142356970-TM6A5L5QBEM82TV3DBN2/adf.jpeg Blog - Personified Times https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5fb2ea57849bc37616bffefb/1772142357048-OTJ076AQWBELXI6M438M/adsfdsafsdfdasf.jpeg Blog - Personified Times https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5fb2ea57849bc37616bffefb/1772142359131-N89824LPEY0UR14971A6/WhatsApp+Image+2026-02-26+at+3.36.29+.jpeg Blog - Personified Times https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5fb2ea57849bc37616bffefb/1772142359330-EQI7OSQWYSKUO8WO4ROL/WhatsApp+Image+2026-02-26+at+3.36.29+P.jpeg Blog - Personified Times https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5fb2ea57849bc37616bffefb/1772142360227-6R3JLLWQDI7YCHAL63LT/WhatsApp+Image+2026-02-26+at+3.36.29+PM.jpeg Blog - Personified Times https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5fb2ea57849bc37616bffefb/68363cab-0aa3-4058-a1af-baef893caf52/jovii.jpeg Blog - Personified Times - Make it stand out Jovi - 10 years https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5fb2ea57849bc37616bffefb/17956db2-5c39-4954-8f09-f9a07e913b63/Alden.JPG Blog - Personified Times - Make it stand out Alden - 10 Years https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5fb2ea57849bc37616bffefb/67c68225-4602-49b1-8dfd-a6068294dce9/Winter.JPG Blog - Personified Times Turns out, PPI is split when it comes to hopping in a time machine!

"Fred started with Packaging Personified when we were all wearing masks. It was not an easy time to establish yourself with a new group of people, but one of Fred’s greatest gifts is the ability to create connections with and between people. While never having held the role of Quality Assurance manager in his long career, he quickly went about the effort of understanding our quality system and the metrics that drive our performance. Fred did not drive performance in quality from a technical perspective; he led people to success by helping them gain an understanding and enthusiasm for the existing system. Strengthening the direct Quality Team under him and using his competitive nature and teambuilding skills to lead Packaging Personified to goal for COPQ from May 2020 through September 2022, when Fred left the position to become Sales Manager at PPI. (We remained at goal through July of 2023, the longest continuous stretch since establishing the metric) During his time in sales, Fred helped strengthen the adoption of key metrics and provided strong communication within the Sales and Operations teams. Putting us on the path to a stronger sales organization. While in the Sales Manager role, Fred established a strong relationship as a mentor and collaborator with my son Dominic, ensuring his readiness to take on the role of Sales Manager upon Fred’s retirement. What he built is a sustainable program with clear focus, key leadership, and teamwork that would live beyond his direct involvement. Fred has a way of communicating on any topic that moves us forward with a common goal. Never escalating, always drawing people in to participate in the solution. The attribute I appreciate most is the respect he displays for the people he works with and his ability to build people up, never underestimating or dismissing their input but guiding their development." -Joe I. "After six years with Packaging Personified, Fred is retiring. During his time with us, Fred brought valuable industry experience and used it to help make our organization stronger. Fred’s leadership across multiple areas of the business has been truly impactful. He has been a thoughtful mentor to many on the team, helping others grow, build confidence, and develop along the way. His guidance and willingness to share what he knows have made a lasting difference. Fred will be missed—not only for his contributions, but also for the humor and lightheartedness he brought to the workplace. We are grateful for all he has done and wish him the very best in his retirement." -Dan I. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5fb2ea57849bc37616bffefb/1767200488437-KCQ6DM9SR1YZSMQ26B3C/6.jpeg Blog - Personified Times https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5fb2ea57849bc37616bffefb/1767200487866-VBJ597SI0PK73RT2IBPD/22.jpg Blog - Personified Times https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5fb2ea57849bc37616bffefb/1767200488861-OVJIXVRH7GEBD0JRC1BI/23.jpg Blog - Personified Times https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5fb2ea57849bc37616bffefb/1767200489431-SJRB8MPU6I9OI62C12XM/24.jpg Blog - Personified Times https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5fb2ea57849bc37616bffefb/5ceb58c3-c3a9-41fe-8392-da32ce1113cb/1762209099790.jpg Blog - Personified Times - Make it stand out Honoring Those Who Served November 11th, we paused to honor the men and women who have served and sacrificed for our country.

Joseph, Forrest, and Steve made the employee exchange from Sparta to Carol Stream as part of our ongoing effort for continuous improvement in the finishing departments at both facilities. As Steve put it best: “It’s not always about the X’s and O’s… More often than not, it’s about having the right Jimmy’s and Joe’s” (we have quite a few of Jimmy’s and Joe’s here at PPI, thankfully)! The trip brought numerous opportunities to improve, and the insights and relationships built will make an impact for years to come. The Carol Stream team’s hospitality made it easy to collaborate, share knowledge, and strengthen both crews. This is how we keep raising the bar — together. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5fb2ea57849bc37616bffefb/1ec8c25b-4561-4d8c-9862-45fbecc00a0f/download.jpeg Blog - Personified Times - Make it stand out Whatever it is, the way you tell your story online can make all the difference. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5fb2ea57849bc37616bffefb/cfc7438b-9968-4ec0-a7a1-23625772eba4/Brenda.jpg Blog - Personified Times - Make it stand out In just the past month, two separate team members from Sparta reached out to share how much they appreciated her support — whether it was taking time to walk through a question or offering help with Unipoint, Brenda made a difference.

When veteran press operator Mike takes a routine swim through the production floor, he unwittingly becomes the target of a relentless, high-performance predator: The Seal. With airtight precision, unstoppable strength, and a jaw-dropping ability to lock in freshness, this legendary force has one mission — to hunt down inefficiency and deliver the cleanest seals the industry has ever seen. As the tension rises and the rollers spin faster, it’s up to the PPI crew to face the beast head-on. Will they survive the bite of unmatched sealing power? Or will they get… reeled in? ⭐ Starring Mike D. ⭐ Featuring our extrusion, converting, and press teams as "The Seal Crew" This spring, (seal) JAWS surfaces — and the only thing scarier than the seal… is running out of shrink film. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5fb2ea57849bc37616bffefb/e6b8a0c3-3438-48b6-bcc3-1ff15222729b/Mariachi.JPG Blog - Personified Times - When asked whether you’d rather have “Eye of the Tiger” play every time you walk to the breakroom, or be followed by a tiny mariachi band once a day for three minutes—votes were pretty evenly split… but Eye of the Tiger edged out the win!

Spencer’s journey with PPI is a testament to hard work, precision, and leadership. Over the years, he has grown from learning the trade of blown film to becoming an indispensable part of our team. Noel, our Extrusion Manager, shares: “In my second stint with PPI, Spencer was merely an operator learning the trade of blown film. As time went on, I quickly realized that anything he did was done precisely, with both quality and production in mind. His work ethic led him to run his own shift, and his attributes spilled over to those who worked under him. Now, as our first-shift department supervisor, he’s excelling at a high level, training as needed and supporting all aspects of the extrusion department—from maintenance to inventory supply. We are very happy to have him on our team and look forward to accomplishing endless goals together. Happy 15th Anniversary, Spencer!” Thank you, Spencer, for your incredible dedication and leadership.

In this gripping tale, the Land of Packaging is thrown into chaos as rival forces battle over the future of flexible bags. Against all odds, two unlikely heroes rise: GIL-inda, and the misunderstood yet determined Elphaba, portrayed by Javier, who fights to bring fairness to overpacked traffic lines. The film dazzles with stunning performances and delivers a powerful message: “Every bag deserves the chance to hang.” With its sharp wit and emotional depth, Wicket reminds us that true strength lies not just in durability but in standing out from the crowd—even if you’re hanging by a hook on the checkout aisle. Expect drama, heart, and plenty of packaging puns to keep you rolling (or unwinding). Trust us, this is one movie you don’t want to bag and forget. https://www.packagingpersonified.com/blog/personified-times-2-ftsb3-3sslz-fb4w2 monthly 0.5 2024-11-05 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5fb2ea57849bc37616bffefb/1729027551981-RDDO0XF59QXDPBINXHER/ghosty3.JPG Blog - Personified Times https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5fb2ea57849bc37616bffefb/1729027551982-737DZCZCWZ6CVE9FWVT0/ghosty5.JPG Blog - Personified Times https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5fb2ea57849bc37616bffefb/1729027552779-HK8JZ9DSEFL02DIZ30U9/ghosty6.JPG Blog - Personified Times https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5fb2ea57849bc37616bffefb/1729027552773-NBQKE0NNDIWM9FO45HCF/ghosty7.JPG Blog - Personified Times https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5fb2ea57849bc37616bffefb/1729027553563-40UL6PDYIOVL6B5F5WID/final+ghosty.JPG Blog - Personified Times https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5fb2ea57849bc37616bffefb/1729027553621-CH1ON7RTRWK2HD0N7GCK/ghosty1.JPG Blog - Personified Times https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5fb2ea57849bc37616bffefb/1729027554398-6OQ2Q76LJMBPNVPRB260/ghosty2.JPG Blog - Personified Times https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5fb2ea57849bc37616bffefb/db5d1066-5a46-4ec3-8ec0-e67b203bf884/Laura.jpg Blog - Personified Times - Make it stand out Laura T, 25 Years https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5fb2ea57849bc37616bffefb/1728927329572-88DK0ZJEXZGU39LV1E91/IMG_3585.jpg Blog - Personified Times https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5fb2ea57849bc37616bffefb/1728927333140-D46DSSAK0LX44K5773W2/IMG_3583.jpg Blog - Personified Times https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5fb2ea57849bc37616bffefb/540fe336-39d5-4d2f-b0d6-43ff2c4aa3e4/AdamDaweAnniv..jpeg Blog - Personified Times - Make it stand out Adam D, 10 Years We’re excited to recognize Adam for a decade of dedication, hard work, and growth at Packaging Personified!

This month’s PPI movie recommendation takes a chilling turn in The Silence of the Laminator. In a quiet, remote production facility, Lam, the Laminator, lurks in the shadows, adding that final, flawless seal to every layer with terrifying precision. But when a mysterious defect threatens to dismantle an entire run of premium roll stock, Lam must face the ultimate packaging nightmare—will he overcome it and save the job, or will the defect strike again? No spoilers, but this suspenseful tale is packed with high-stakes drama and edge-of-your-seat moments. It’s a haunting look into the lamination process like you’ve never seen before—one that will have you questioning every crease, every fold, every seal. Just remember: silence is golden… and so is airtight lamination. Catch The Silence of the Laminator if you dare, though I’m not sure where it’s streaming. That said, rumor has it that Noel in Extrusion has a VHS copy somewhere in his office, if you’re brave enough to ask. https://www.packagingpersonified.com/blog/personified-times-2-ftsb3-3sslz monthly 0.5 2024-10-14 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5fb2ea57849bc37616bffefb/b9b1e8f6-179e-468b-af97-2e24ef5dd75e/IMG_3373.jpg Blog - Personified Times - Make it stand out September at Packaging Personified was anything but boring!

Lou has been in his current role of Production Scheduler for many years now, and his insights and effective management of this critical aspect of the business have been an incredible asset. We have been fortunate to share many years growing and advancing at PPI, but that is not all Lou has been a member of the family for so long that we have also had the opportunity to see his children grow, get married, and have children of their own.
