Over 3,000 participants from 56 countries attended the 7th edition of the Aerosol & Dispensing Forum (ADF) held Feb. 6-7 in Paris, France. Sixty suppliers of aerosol and dispensing packaging systems, products, technologies and service providers presented their innovations. The session on recent advances in aerosol techniques took stock of gaskets and polymer components, manufacturing line controls, induction as an alternative to water baths, and solutions for can customization. Clinching, an important aspect of aerosol sealing, was addressed by an expert panel and will be the subject of an in-depth session at the next edition. The theme of varnishes highlighted new regulatory requirements with a view to finding an alternative to the use of BPAs. It was followed by a session on pro-pellants. The second day focused on prospects for the development of plastic aerosols, to boost their development on the market, and on foams and spray, taking stock of the most recent developments and research to limit their environmental impact. The session on the impact of Information & Communication Technologies on business practices focused on making companies more high-speed.
