CURRICULUM VITAE
Gerald Lefebvre has diverse international packaging management experience including R&D, Quality, Sales and Industrial Planning within several major materials & systems suppliers. (PPG, UCB, WALKI, COSMOP, LAWSON MARDON, ALCAN.)
His 20+ years of experience designing packaging programs that incorporate laboratory plans through package production and validation for key international clients, has enabled him to define, measure,analyze, control and innovate packaging solutions from the "nanométrical" formulation of raw materials to the final model/design in respect to environmental life cycles, waste, quality & costs with tools and common sense.
In 2006, he decided to create his own Consultant Agency to optimize packaging systems and make them more "sustainable".
ECOscore6 is the new logo of Gérald Lefebvre activities
Ø less material, less energy (more ECOnomical, more ECOlogical),
Ø less waste and more sustainability are guided with tools (Score Cards)
Ø and facts (for example based on Life Cycle Assessments .).
He is in charge of training sessions and seminars about ECO Conceptions, sustainabilty and Modeling for packaging professionals in Europe and USA.
He is working on optimization and innovation industrial projects, where less energie,
less material, less waste and more sustainable are a "MUST" and a Challenge.
He is an external teacher and or trainer for Packaging Schools and Professionals
in Europe and the United States.
