“And here in South-East Asia, other pre-requisites for creating attractive markets for personal care products are met,” Wiertz too informed.
He further added that EDANA is dedicated to providing forums like this to deliver the common objective to contribute to the sustainable growth of the global nonwoven hygiene and personal care products industries.
Participants highlighted their delight at the event, especially with the growing representation and attendance of regional professionals.
Additionally, the range and coverage of topics recognised, both the opportunities for growth of the industry, and its responsibility not just to its consumers, but to the broader society.
The conference included the second edition of the Outlook Asia Award, which recognises a product or service that has been developed for or in the Asia Pacific region, including the Indian subcontinent.
EDANA said it will continue to support its member companies and partners across the region, including its global partner, the Asian Nonwovens Fabrics Association (ANFA).
The next opportunity of such a support will be the ANFA Indonesian seminar as part of the Indonesia International Technical Textile and Nonwovens Exhibition in Jakarta in April 2016. (AR)
