By David Callif, President BCM Inks

As 2015 comes to a close, I’d like to reflect. (My yoga instructor says this along with proper breathing does wonders for your mind and body!)
I want to thank you– our customers, suppliers, and associates for all you’ve done to make this past year a memorable one. For example, a customer asked us to help them develop an ink that covers extremely absorbant recycled paper. Working together through numerous trials, we were able to accomplish the objective. I appreciate the collaborative approach. It is a win for all parties. It makes everyone feel good. We’ve also refined our sustainable products initiatives. We’ve seen our P (post) C (consumer) R (recyclable) black poundage grow. This product, which takes left over inkjet ink and recycles it into a finished black flexo ink similar to GCMI 90 black, is a win for everybody. It makes me proud to know that BCM Inks’ commitment to the environment is as strong as ever. Click here for other BCM innovations!
The late poet laureate, Maya Angelou, said it best: “I’ve learned that people will forget what you said, people will forget what you did, but will never forget how you made them feel.”
My wish is that all of us work together in 2016 to achieve one another’s goals. Then we should take the time to savor the moment, feel good about how we’ve helped our customers, suppliers, and associates then express personal gratitude.
Thank you all for a year to remember-
Wishing you and yours all the best for 2016!
