Speaking about his visit, John Gallo said: "This has been a really informative trip. The facilities and technology at Derrylin are truly impressive, as is the depth of knowledge shown by everyone in the Encirc team. Expertise, like that demonstrated here in Derrylin, is crucial to any company's success, which is why I'm thankful to the Academy for its training support for our own lines in California."

Rob Healy, general manager of the Encirc Academy, added: "John Gallo is a leading industry figure, so it was an honour to welcome him and his family to Derrylin.

"The partnership with Gallo has meant that we have been able to both showcase our technological and manufacturing expertise but also learn from Gallo about its processes. Our production lines are industry leading and this visit is a testament to the expertise of our team."
