FEFCO Technical Seminar 9-11 October 2019-Palexpo-Geneva

摘要

The FEFCO Technical Seminar has now gained an excellent reputation in Europe and beyond after more than 30 years of existence.Our last event in 2017 was a big success thanks to a record attendance of around 1,000 participants from 40 countries,126 stands and of 87 exhibiting companies.The exhibitors showcased their innovations in machines,products and services to a high-level audience of decision makers from the corrugated board industry.It is the not-to-be-missed European Corrugated conference and exhibition! A few weeks ago,I went with some colleagues to an open house event organised by one of our industry suppliers.A dinner was held the evening before,where lively conversation revolved around the challenges our industry is facing."How do we tackle changes in the paper industry-tow grammage,moisture variations and the introduction of special grades?"“How can we integrate digital printing into our existing plants,which makes economic and logistical sense?"“How do we optimise preventative and predictive maintenance when shorter lead times and maximising uptime predominate?"“Is the phenomenal growth in e-commerce a blessing or a threat to our industry?"“Will the growing focus on sustainability at some of our customers have an impact on our daily operations?”
