Approximately 1,500 guests accepted the invitation from Progroup and Gatner-Packaging to their Open Day at the packaging park at Stryków, Poland. The two family companies organised a great day out with fun and games for all as well as lots of good things to eat and enjoy in addition to the opportunity to see behind the scenes of corrugated board and packaging production.

“We are delighted and proud that more than 1,500 neighbours, employees and their families took up our invitation and spent the day with us. This wonderful day out with its personal and close contacts creates a sense of togetherness both for now and in the future,” said Maximilian Heindl, CEO, Progroup.
The stage programme was provided by regional and local organisations and partners: cycling enthusiasts could try out the turbo trainers and rollers of the LUKS Stryków Cycling Club; football players of Zjednoczeni Stryków were at pains to display their prowess in penalty shoot-outs into mini-goal posts. There was a fire engine on display at the fire brigade tent and the TK Basket Stryków invited visitors to shoot some baskets with them. A series of bouncy castles and similar were waiting for local children, or face-painting transformed them into brightly-coloured mythical creatures or fearsome pirates. And the Children’s Theatre, a giant chill-out area and live music from Sugar Free with Zuza Pycia made sure of an unforgettable day for everyone.
