Obituary – Glen Buckner

We are sad to report the death of the well-known corrugated graphics consultant, Glen Buckner. He passed away on 30th July at the age of 86.

Buckner was a champion of the early flexo graphics on corrugated packaging in the 1980s and 1990s. In 1983, at 50 years of age, he boldly ventured into entrepreneurship and started his own consulting agency, The Buckner Group Ltd. His client list was global including Europe, Australia, New Zealand and Canada. He jetted coast-to-coast in the US too as none of his clients were located in Indiana. He was fondly referred to as ‘The Father of Graphics Packaging’ and considered a topic expert.
