Debut for Outlook in Brazil

EDANA and INDA have announced that the first edition of Outlook Latin America will be held from March 3-5 2015 in Sao Paulo, Brazil with support from the Brazilian Technical Textiles and Nonwovens Association (ABINT).

“With both interest and investments across Latin America attracting strong interest from across the nonwovens supply chain, this event offers not only a unique opportunity for businesses to promote their presence, but also to meet and speak with the local and global personal care and hygiene nonwovens industry.” said EDANA general manager Pierre Wiertz.

“We are delighted to partner with EDANA to reach beyond traditional markets and organize a world-class event in the southern half of our hemisphere,” added INDA president Dave Rousse. “Latin American producers of nonwoven products in personal care represent a growing element of our membership, with several companies operating in both North and South America. This jointly organized event fulfils objectives of both associations in a single event, and highlights the importance of this growing and dynamic market.”

The Outlook conference series is directly aimed at the producers and converters of nonwoven materials and their related industries for personal care products and wipes. With 11 editions in Europe and its first edition in Asia Pacific in 2013, the series has attracted more than 4,000 participants from across the globe.
