EDANA, the leading global association serving the nonwovens and related industries, announced the draft program of the International Nonwovens Symposium, to be held in Vienna on June 12th and 13th.
The symposium will cover a range of nonwovens topics across all type of applications with a predominant emphasis on sustainability. Pierre Wiertz, General Manager of EDANA, says, “Looking back at the focus of the INS over the years sustainability as a topic has evolved from a minor interest subject to take primacy on the agenda, thereby reflecting our industry’s priority concerns.”
The 2019 program will kick off with a key note speech on the impact of the changing global trade patterns on the nonwovens industry by Hosuk Lee-Makiyama, Director of the European Centre for International Political Economy (ECIPE).
A range of presentations will feature, covering essential business areas of the nonwovens sector, including:
- Nonwovens innovation
- Sustainability
- Material, process & product development
- Market & industry trends
The symposium is recognized by professionals as one of the best forums worldwide for knowledge enhancement with excellent technical content. The tabletop exhibition organized during the event is also a great opportunity for participants to extend their network and develop business contacts.
Registration to the conference is now open, and can be accessed on the EDANA website.
