In memory of their late technical director Werner Sattler, BCM Inks USA, Cincinnati, OH, awarded a record scholarship amount to Clemson University’s graphics communication department.
    
This year, six Clemson University graphics communication department students received the BCM Inks/Werner Sattler scholarship for the advancement of corrugated print technology.
    
David Callif, president and owner of BCM Inks, said that Mr. Sattler got his start in printing at a young age, and had a unique insight into the industry.
    
“Werner was a truly unique individual who was dedicated to the industry he grew up in,” said Mr. Callif. “His dad worked at Heidelberg in Germany, and Werner started to go to trade shows when he was 5. He was one of the most talented individuals I’ve met. Once you met him, you remembered him.”
    
Mr. Sattler had sold his own Canadian ink company to Alubec in 1984, and when Mr. Callif acquired Alubec’s ink division in 1988, Mr. Sattler joined him.
    
“He started with us when we began the company in 1988,” Mr. Callif said. He was my mentor in the ink business. I’ll always have a special spot in my heart for him.”  
    
Mr. Callif said that Mr. Sattler enjoyed working with the Clemson program from its beginnings.
    
“When Clemson began its corrugated program, Werner started working with them, and collaborated closely with corrugated industry leaders,” Mr. Callif said. “He was tremendously knowledgeable about engineering and how to print graphically.”
    
This is the ninth consecutive year for the scholarship, which was renamed for Mr. Sattler in 1999. Since 1994, more than 35 Clemson students have received scholarships.
