Dr. Wilhelm Busse
Managing Director
ZELLCHEMING
Dear ipw reader,

"Fibers in Process" is the motto of this year's ZELLCHEMING Expo with accompanying trade show from June 12 – 14 2013 in the Rhein-Main-Hallen in Wiesbaden. The Congress features numerous perspectives from the full scope of products along the entire process chain of the pulp and paper industry.

The renowned international lecture series "Science & Innovation” runs on all three days and includes the cellulose chemists' symposium "Lignin and Hemicellulose." Newly integrated into the exhibition, are the focus areas "Trends in Fibers" and "Papers in Process". "Science and Research" presents research projects at universities and "Jobs & Careers" is the meeting point for education and occupation.

In the lecture forum "Fibers in Process" discussions on the Roadmap 2050, demands on recycled products, the future of paper, securing raw materials recycling economy and the competitiveness of Germany will take place. The exhibition "Fibers - The next Generation" invites you to marvel at innovative future trends. For more information, see www.zellcheming-expo.de.

I look forward to seeing you again in Wiesbaden.


Your


     Dr. Wilhelm Busse
