Not only are we celebrating our 30th anniversary, we're also celebrating team member Alex's 25 year work anniversary at Imperial. What an achievement! We caught up with Alex to ask about her experiences in the Polythene industry and what's on her playlist!
What are some of the most significant changes you’ve witnessed in the industry during your 25 years at IPP?
Lots of changes over the years! Raw material costs have changed a great deal. The cost of British manufacturing has increased hugely. Polythene bags have become somewhat more technical than they ever were before! I’ve witnessed how Imperial have moved with the times over the past 25 years, innovating & adapting to the constant evolving requirements of the Polythene industry / market & the customers needs.
What’s one thing you’ve always wanted to try but haven’t yet?
Not sure if I want to disclose this, but for the last year or so I’ve wanted to start running. Not marathons or anything like that, just casual running early mornings / evenings. I will start it soon….watch this space I will be like Forrest Gump before you know it haha 😊
If you could travel anywhere in the world, where would you go and why?
We have always said we will go to Vegas one day, so I guess the answer to that would be Las Vegas Baby and why not?!
You’re a huge music fan! What 3 albums would you take with you if you were stuck on an island?
Very tricky to answer that one! Dark Side of the Moon combined with Wish you were here - Pink Floyd, Different Class - Pulp & Rumours - Fleetwood Mac. These choices could change daily though as so difficult to choose just 3!
