We're celebrating 40 years in business! Join in the celebrations on stand C50 at the @ppmashow! Grab a cupcake (while they're available) and find out about our latest vertical form fill and seal solutions! #ppmashow Automate UK #vffs #packagingsolutions #packagingmachines

Don't think there are any cupcakes left on stand C50, but the 40th anniversary of GIC continues and there's lots of information about our latest vertical form fill and seal solutions to be found at the @PPMAShow today! #ppmashow Automate UK #vffs #packagingsolutions #packaging

It's the last day of the @ppmashow, so if you're at the NEC you only have today to share in our 40th anniversary celebrations and to talk to us about our latest #VFFS solutions! We're on stand C50! #ppmashow Automate UK #vffs #packagingsolutions #packagingmachines

Now, this is a bit smart! A 3D photo of our stand at this year's @PPMAShow ! It even has hotspots giving you information on our machines and a link to the story about our 40th birthday (if you can find it!) pxlbake.com/published/66fb… Thanks to Automate UK for arranging it.

“They shall grow not old, as we that are left grow old: Age shall not weary them, nor the years condemn. At the going down of the sun and in the morning, We will remember them.” - Laurence Binyon “Ode of Remembrance”

Another busy week here at GIC, with 4 vertical form fill and seal machines leaving us today. Three GIC8000 continuous motion machines, all specified for paper packaging applications, have left us along with one GIC3000 continuous motion machine, for packing frozen foods.
