Edana and INDA, the association of the nonwoven fabrics industry, will host the third edition of Outlook Plus Latin America (OPLA) forum in Brazil from May 7-9, 2019. It will examine the economic outlook, market statistics, and latest products and trends for the hygiene, personal care, and medical markets. Edana & INDA are global nonwovens associations.

The event, to be held at the Sheraton Sao Paulo WTC hotel, will also feature a tabletop exhibition with local and international companies showcasing products and services. For the first time, this edition of OPLA will also cover developments in nonwoven filter media, an important and growing sector in Latin America, according to a press release by Edana.

The programme will feature an in-depth look at the latest developments in nonwovens for the Latin American and global absorbent hygiene and personal care products markets, including expert local insight on the political and economic environment, growth trends, and the potential for nonwovens in this region. Simultaneous translation in English, Portuguese, and Spanish will be provided during the conference.

“Outlook Latin America is now firmly established as a must-attend event for ambitious companies with an interest in the region, and Edana is proud to once again provide a platform for innovation and business to flourish. We are delighted to again partner with INDA in supporting our member companies and local businesses to showcase their expertise and explore opportunities for growth,” Pierre Wiertz, general manager of Edana said.

“As INDA continues to provide industry leadership in the US, we are pleased to again align with Edana in organising a conference focused on the key developing markets in South America that use nonwoven engineered materials,” said Dave Rousse, president of INDA. (GK)
