EAFA Elections: Taking the initiative to grow and develop markets responsibly

Jan Homan, Supervisory Board Member of Constantia Flexibles, has been re-elected President of the European Aluminium Foil Association (EAFA) at the organisation’s summer conference held in Hamburg. The European Aluminium Foil Association is the international body representing companies engaged in flexible packaging, in rolling and rewinding of alufoil as well as in the manufacture of aluminium closures and semi-rigid containers. Its more than 100 members include companies in Western, Central and Eastern Europe.

Speaking during the conference, following his re-appointment, Mr Homan said, “It is a great honour to have been given the task to continue leading EAFA. Currently there is great optimism that the industry is well positioned to take advantage of the improving economic position, both in Europe and beyond. Membership has never been higher and the portfolio of products they represent means there are opportunities in many sectors.”

“EAFA has the experience and insight to deal with the challenges ahead. Our organisation has been instrumental in keeping the issues of innovation, sustainability, resource efficiency and globalized markets at the forefront of discussions. My job, along with my colleagues on the board, will be to ensure these roles continue and the Association stays at the centre of the industry’s ambitious plans. I look forward to continuing to move EAFA forward and to the Association growing stronger and even more effective in the future.”
