SPA Members – Meet the Next Generation at UK Corrugated Industry Trade Show 2026

SPA Members attending UKCITS26 on 6/7 October will have a great opportunity to meet students, apprentices, graduates, tutors and other young people interested in careers in our industry.

We encourage members to stop, talk – and importantly, listen.  Find out what young people are looking for from employers, share the opportunities within your business and explain the skills our industry needs.

You can also meet college tutors, representatives from Department for Work & Pensions (DWP), and visit the Young People in Print & Packaging (YPIPP) and SPA stands to find out more about attracting and supporting the next generation.

Don’t just walk past the students – start a conversation. You might inspire a future career in corrugated packaging – and learn something valuable too.

For introductions to tutors from Hugh Baird, Northampton, Shrewsbury or Telford Colleges, please contact the UKCITS26 Trade Show organisers.
