APS Packaging Experiential Learning Fund for Future Wine & Beverage Leaders

APS Packaging, in collaboration with the UC Davis Department of Viticulture and Enology, took a group of students to tour Hess Persson Estates and Infinity Bottling!

We noticed the need for real-world skills and industry knowledge in the classroom, so we kick-started the “APS Packaging Experiential Learning Fund.” This fund is a game-changer for students as it provides students with invaluable opportunities, including field trips, guest speaker presentations, and hands-on education focused on bottling and its significance.

A huge thank you to David Davenport and Jessica Tuteur from Infinity Bottling, Mimi Storts and Andy Strasser from Hess Persson Estates, and Sergio Ciocchetta from MBF North America for taking the time to talk to us about the importance of automation. Automating a bottling line boosts efficiency, consistency, and cost-effectiveness, making it a vital investment for any operation aiming to stay competitive.

If you wish to support our future winemakers, distillers, and brewers, consider making a donation to the “APS Packaging Experiential Learning Fund.” All proceeds go to enhancing students’ industry knowledge through real-world experiences.
