A Longtime Supporter of JDRF, Jet Label Also Sent Team to Participate
in Stationary Cycling Event Occurring in Cities Across Canada
Jet Label & Packaging Ltd., Western Canada’s largest producer of labels and printed tape for a broad range of industries, is an elite sponsor of this year’s Revolution Ride to Defeat Diabetes in Edmonton. A longtime supporter of JDRF, Jet Label also had a team participating in the Edmonton chapter of the organization’s stationary cycling event, which takes place in cities across Canada. In Edmonton, participants engaged in a 10-minute ride as they put their physical fitness to the test to help find a cure for type 1 diabetes (T1D).
Jet Label is committed to supporting JDRF’s mission of accelerating life-changing breakthroughs to cure, prevent and treat T1D and its complications. As the largest non-profit funder of T1D research in the world, JDRF’s goal is to help people at all ages and disease stages live better, longer, healthier lives. Its ultimate vision is to achieve a world without T1D and “turn Type One into Type None.”
With over two decades of servicing customers in food, forestry, pharma and a variety of other sectors, Jet Label has a long history of satisfying customers and supporting worthy causes. With manufacturing facilities in Edmonton and Vancouver, Jet Label produces labels and printed tape efficiently and cost-effectively for a diverse portfolio of customers, including grocery stores such as Safeway and Sobeys, international forest product companies such as Canfor and West Fraser, consumer product companies such as Bee Maid Honey and Arctic Chiller, industrial application companies such as Ackland’s Grainger, Gregg Distributors, and All Weather Windows.
“Jet Label is thrilled to support JDRF’s fight to find new ways to prevent, treat and hopefully eradicate Type One diabetes,” said Darrell Friesen, President & CEO of Jet Label & Packaging Ltd. “We share the organization’s commitment to healthy living, community activism and environmental sustainability, and were honored to participate.”
