Leading global nonwovens associations, Edana and INDA, have announced the programme of speakers and topics for Outlook Plus Latin America to be held in Sao Paulo, from May 7 to 9, 2019. The third edition of the networking conference and exhibition will examine the latest regional developments in the nonwoven personal care and absorbent hygiene sectors.
The first two days of the conference and table-top display exhibition offer an overview of the Latin American hygiene nonwoven markets, and feature presentations on private/retail brand labels, product design & challenges, sustainability and new materials & technologies. The third day of the exhibition will focus on nonwoven filtration media and nonwoven medical products, according to a press release by Edana.
Keynote presenter, Welber Barral, Ph.D., chairman of the Brazil Industries Coalition and former Brazilian Secretary of Foreign Trade, will open the conference with a presentation on the country’s economy, reviewing the risks and the opportunities and economic and political prospects. The second day will kick off with a second keynote speech on trends and opportunities in the disposable hygiene market by Rafael Pellegrini, research analyst at Euromonitor International.
On May 7 and 8, 2019, nonwoven hygiene and personal care products will be displayed by Braskem, Kimberly-Clark (Brazil), Colquimica (Portugal), Organica (Brazil), Evonik (Germany), and others. On May 9, 2019, medical and filtration products will be displayed by Ahlstrom-Munksjo (Brazil), Fibertex Nonwovens A/S (Denmark), Berry Global, Lydall Performance Materials (USA), and others.
“This third edition of the Outlook Plus Latin America conference highlights the opportunities and potential for growth across the Latin American nonwovens industry, particularly for the personal care industries. In organising this conference, we are keen to offer a programme that addresses both retail and marketing aspects as well as product design considerations that are key to understand the Latin American nonwovens markets. The programme also features important presentations on medical application and – for the very first time- filtration media, highlighting the opportunities into the Latin American nonwovens industry,” Marines Lagemaat, technical director of Edana said.
“INDA is pleased to once again co-organize a major nonwovens conference in South America focused on nonwoven markets in South America. For this edition, we have had outstanding support from ABINT, the Brazilian nonwovens organisation, in developing a programme consisting largely of Brazilian presenters on the markets there. This will be a must-attend event for all elements of the nonwovens supply chain in South America, from raw material supplier to roll goods producer to the converters and brand owners,” Dave Rousse, INDA president said.
