49^th FCBM Conference

Team EICMA looks forward to welcoming you all to the 49th FCBM Conference and “CorruPack 202ONE” exhibition to be held from Dec 17-19, 2021 at ITC Royal Bengal, Kolkata.

A logo can be described as the face of a conference. It is the first thing that a potential delegate, exhibitor, sponsor or a speaker will notice about the event. A logo is much more than just an image, it is a point of identification with the theme of the conference and sets the tone for the event.

The conference logo, arrived at after much deliberation and debate, as approved by the FCBM M.C., reflects the theme and ethos of the upcoming 2021 FCBM Conference:

1. The Three M’s or M Cube are meant to emphasize the three most basic, yet important aspects in the manufacture and marketing of corrugated board boxes: MAN, MACHINE & MATERIAL.
   First M - MAN – The role and mindset of the workforce, management & entrepreneur with propertraining, knowledge, motivation and application will give the world the desired product at optimal costs.
   Second M - MACHINE – Latest technologies available to the industry.
   Third M - MATERIAL – The availability of various raw materialsand prudent application of the same.
2. Green lines around the 3 M’s signify the importance of green,environment-friendly boxes which needs to be worked on further and marketed, especially in times when the Government is trying to find suitable replacements for single-use plastic.
3. Leaves from 202ONE signify that we are growing towards the next decade with positive footprints for the next generation. Leaves provide energy for the trees to remain healthy and grow, and similarly, boxes provide the impetus to our consumer industries and economy to flourish.
4. Arrow on Box shows the growth trajectory for the industry on optimum usage ofthe 3 M’s - Man, Machine & Material.We, as an industry, can continue to grow and flourish by going back to our roots and mastering the three key elements, which are the fundamentals of our industry.
