Businesses are continuing to sign up for Tissue World 2013 in Barcelona's ultra-modern Fira Gran Via. There has also been a renewed interest in showcasing machinery at the event with more companies planning on bringing machinery because of Barcelona’s excellent sea, road and rail systems. The trade show is the ‘Big One’ in Tissue World’s cycle of conferences in the tissue paper industry, and it draws thousands of visitors from almost 90 countries on every continent. It takes place on 18-21 March, 2013, and for the first time in Barcelona. Taking place on 20 – 23 March this year in Miami Beach, Florida, visitors attending the show will learn about the latest developments and technology in the busy North and South American tissue market. The conference program gives an update of the latest market developments and technical advances. Hot issues include sustainability and green initiatives - and how to make them profitable. Tissue World Miami will examine these issues in detail with a panel of speakers including, among other, Greenpeace, FSC, and SCA.
