Dear ipw reader,
how great it was to meet so many of you at the Zellcheming Expo last week! As always, many ideas, networking and changes facing our industry were hotly discussed. We saw and experienced many solutions as well - which was exciting. The visitor numbers were up, but we hope that the profitability of the expo was also up, as this is the only international trade show for the pulp and paper industry in central Europe. So, we hope to see you there next year, as it is up to all of us to help maintain and make the most of this unique event. (Save the date: June 28 - 30, 2016) If you have any feedback, please reply to this email, we would like to print a selection of your comments or suggestions in our next issue that will include a summary of the event, 'Best of Zellcheming'. (If you would like your comments to remain anonymous, please state that in your answer!) We look forward to your feedback! Below, please find the most recent news from our website. Wishing you a wonderful summer, Sincerely,your ipw team |
