Market intelligence sessions to be highlight of IDEA 2019

The event is expected to attract more than 7,000 attendees and over 500 exhibitors from 70 plus countries across the spectrum of nonwovens and engineered fabric sectors from hygiene, medical, and filtration to automotive, geotextiles, building, construction, and home furnishings – to conduct business with current and prospective customers, according to a press release by INDA.

Other highlights of the event include the presentation of the prestigious IDEA 19 Lifetime Achievement Award to honour an individual who has given his or her best both personally and professionally to serve INDA and the industry, and the IDEA Achievement Awards organised by INDA in partnership with Nonwovens Industry Magazine. The IDEA Achievement Awards occur every three years in conjunction with IDEA to honour leading companies and new products (since IDEA 16) in the global engineered fabrics industry in six categories: equipment, roll goods, raw materials, converted products (short-life), and converted products (long-life), and entrepreneur. The finalists will be announced on Feb 1, 2019.

“We return IDEA to a fully modernised facility in Miami Beach that will make this event a most memorable experience.  We’ve had a great response to our triennial global event and exhibit space sales have already been brisk,” said Dave Rousse, INDA president.

INDA, the association of the nonwoven fabrics Industry, serves hundreds of member companies in the nonwovens/engineered fabrics industry in global commerce. (PC)
