New TIP Touts a Hands-on Approach to Safety, Paper360º January/February 2025

Safety is not just a buzzword for the pulp, paper, tissue, and packaging industries— it’s critical to our operations and to our collective future. For an inspired group of TAPPI members and safety professionals, that was the motivation behind a new TAPPI Technical Information Paper (TIP) that outlines a proven approach to safety training that any mill can use. PIMA TIP 1502-01: Improving Safety Training—A Hands-on Approach represents a new category for TIPs and the first from the PIMA Division.

Kurt Mehlberg is quality solutions manager for Domtar. He also had a big hand in developing this new TIP with other members of PIMA’s Safety Committee. As Mehlberg says, “We’re all on that safety journey to the elimination of life-altering injuries in our industry”—there is no other acceptable goal for any mill or plant.

TAPPI conference proceedings and presentations, technical papers, and publication articles provide technical and management data and solutions on topics covering the Pulp, Paper, Tissue, Corrugated Packaging, Flexible Packaging, Nanotechnology and Converting Industries.
