Do We Need a BIG IDEA for Coil Coating?

Speaker: Mickey Fortune, RadTech
Wednesday, February 11, 2026 | 2:00 – 2:45 PM EST

UV/EB has long promised faster cure, lower energy use, and better performance for coil coating, yet adoption remains stubbornly slow. This session challenges the assumption that the barrier is technical and reframes the problem as a systems and organizational issue. Rather than offering easy answers, it poses the hard questions the industry must confront to unlock meaningful scale.

EPR – Shifting the Packaging Landscape

Speaker: Tyler Matusevich, Director, Sustainability, Brook+Whittle
Tuesday, February 17, 2026 | 2:00 – 3:00 PM EST

Extended Producer Responsibility (EPR) is a policy approach that shifts the financial and operational burden of packaging waste disposal from local governments to producers, companies that manufacture, package, and sell consumer goods. We will discuss what it is, how it works, and how it will impact packaging design decisions.
