Kevin works at the Golden Circle Northgate Factory in Brisbane, Queensland. His responsibilities include all Packaging NPD, cost savings and improvement matters for the Golden Circle Northgate site, from steel cans and ends, bottles, closures, shrink films, CombiBloc to consumables such as adhesives.

The AIP invited Kevin to talk about his studies and what the Diploma in Packaging Technology means to him…

“I recently graduated from the Diploma in Packaging Technology administered by the AIP. The Diploma was a journey that I am now glad, and proud, that I have undertaken. It helped explain why certain materials behave the way they do, or how the same material can turn out to be quite different with improved performance characteristics just by varying the processing conditions,” Mr Truong said.

“As a graduate of the Diploma in Packaging Technology, I do recommend all the packaging related, professionals (direct or indirect), out there to take up the challenge to complete the course. At the very least you can proudly pound your chest and say “Hey, I am qualified!” when it comes to packaging technology!” he said.
