Inken Schoenauer
Editor-in-chief 		Dear ipw reader,

The new issue of bio-fibre magazine and ipw are ready - together.

We launched bio-fibre magazine 4 years ago and have had two issues per year, but with this issue we are not only celebrating the increased frequency planned for 2017 but also the bigger size of the magazine to match that of ipw.

First we were thrilled about the new technology and new breakthroughs in this sector but they were few and far in between. But over the years the volume of news increased and last but not least the interest from advertisers. Even this newsletter has become a joint-venture of the two magazines. Thank you to all of our readers and advertisers for supporting bio-fibre magazine.

Greetings from the Cepi European Paper Week in Brussels and Happy Thanksgivings to all of you!

your ipw and bio-fibre team
