Karlville treated the AWA Shrink Sleeve Conference to a tour of the world class facility of one of our local customers, Safeprints in Miami, Florida. The company got its moment in the spotlight as a world of manufacturers converged for networking and creating business opportunities.
They were treated to hot food, cold drinks, and a wonderful facility tour along with guided explanations of the newest Karlville machinery for shrink sleeve converting and shrink sleeve application, pouch converting and narrow web slitting/inspection equipment.
Excellent networking took place as visitors from Latin America, Asia, Europe, the United States and more came together for a fascinating look inside our industry. Here are some behind the scenes photos from the event.
A short bus ride from the Hilton Miami took passengers to our world class facility in the very central location of Doral, not far from the famous Trump resort that is home to one of the finest golf courses in the nation, the famous Blue Monster at the Trump National Doral.

Guests took the opportunity for light networking and enjoying the Miami sunshine.

Upon arrival, the steam and humidity in the air of the city defined the subtropical environment, but left guests smiling at the Miaminess of it all.
Attendees walked a waterfront path into our manufacturing plant excited by the prospect of seeing what new technologies Karlville has up our sleeve.
