UBM Asia, organiser of Asian Paper – the region’s premier event for the pulp, paper, packaging, corrugated and print industry, and ASEAN Sustainable Energy Week, a dedicated event in Southeast Asia for renewable energy sources and technology, has announced to co-locate both events for their next edition, which will be held in June 2016 at the Bangkok International Trade and Exhibition Centre (BITEC). The two events will provide pulp, paper, packaging, corrugated and print industry professionals access to renewable energy sources and technology, including wind and solar power, thermal and waste energy, hydro-powered programs, as well as bio-mass and other forms of green technology. 

The success of ASEAN Sustainable Energy Week reflects the growing opportunities for the renewable energy market in the ASEAN region, with Thailand currently promoting alternative energy as a national agenda issue with a goal to increase the share of renewable energy to 25% of the country’s energy demand by the year 2021.

“We are delighted to be able to work in close co-operation with ASEAN Sustainable Energy Week in creating a must-attend event for important industry decision makers, C-level executives, such as Buyers & Sourcing Personnel, CEOs & Decisions Makers, Industry Associations, Key Government Officials, Mill Owners, Managers & Supervisors, Paper Merchants, Paper Technologists, Paper Traders, Distributors, Wholesalers, Designers, Printer & Publishers, and R & D Professionals etc.,” said Jennifer Lee, Event Manager, Asian Paper. 

Expected to attract over 30,000 trade visitors, Asian Paper Bangkok, now in its 14th edition, and ASEAN Sustainable Energy Week in its 16th edition, will provide an invaluable opportunity to experience and view innovations in all of these sectors, while providing key networking possibilities. Apart from the trade show, both events will also feature a stellar conference with hot topics addressing the trends, forecasts and innovations, as well as technical tracks, in the case of Asian Paper, which will focus on the latest developments in the pulp, paper, packaging, corrugated and print production and maintenance with innovative veteran speakers.

Asian Paper Bangkok will be held from 1-3 June, 2016 and ASEAN Sustainable Energy Week will be held from 1-4 June, 2016 at the Bangkok International Trade and Exhibition Centre (BITEC).

Asia’s Premier Pulp and Paper event returns this year from 25 – 27 April 2012 at Queen Sirikit National Convention & Exhibition Centre, Plenary Halls 1, 2 and 3 in Bangkok, Thailand.

With Asia positioned as the world’s fastest-growing economy amidst a looming recession in the United States and fiscal instability in the Euro zone, there is no better time for market leaders to capitalise on this resource-hungry region.

First organised by United Business Media (UBM) in 1992, Asian Paper features many high level Symposiums with presentations and panel discussions by industry veterans, as well as dedicated Paper Mill visits on the eve of the show. It is one of the few occasions where both buyers and sellers are housed under one roof, giving all vendors a chance to network and obtain industry contacts both regional and global.

This year’s event showcases more than 200 international exhibitors from around the world, bringing together a comprehensive display of the latest cutting-edge Pulp and Paper technologies and equipment rarely seen in a single industry event. China and Finnish Pavilions have been added due to overwhelming participation from these two particular countries.

Among the exhibitors are the world’s leading suppliers to the Pulp & Paper industry, giving participants an unrivalled opportunity in Asian Paper to meet and discuss specific solutions to the current challenges and issues facing their companies.

The Senior Management Symposium is Asia’s leading Management Conference for the Pulp and Paper Industry, and covers pertinent issues facing senior key decision managers today. And the Technical Conference, “The New Applied Technology”, addresses the latest developments in Pulp & Paper Production and Maintenance with innovative veteran speakers.

Some exhibitors’ concerns of recent flooding in Thailand were thoroughly addressed by Akapol Sorasuchart, President of Thailand Convention and Exhibition Bureau. “Suvarnabhumi International Airport is fully functional and the central business district of Bangkok is flood-free with all businesses operating normally”, he stated in an official press release dated 21 November 2011.

Asian Paper 2012 is expected to attract over 6,000 visitors and more than 300 delegates to the Conferences. As exhibition space is reported to be moving fast, all would-be exhibitors are advised to reserve their spots immediately to avoid disappointment.

With exclusive complimentary professional public relations and publicity services for all exhibitors, courtesy of UBM Asia, this is sure to be an exciting event not to be missed!

After careful consideration the organizers of Tissue World, the largest global event for the soft hygienic tissue paper industry, are very pleased to announce that Tissue World 2013 will be held in Barcelona, Spain on 18-21 March 2013. Thus Tissue World – the BIG ONE – will be taking place at the ultra-modern Fira Gran Via Congress center which is conveniently located between the city center and Barcelona's El Prat international airport.

Barcelona offers many positive aspects including the modern Gran Via Congress Center which is 8 km from the airport and 4 km from the city center; excellent direct airline connections to Europe and the rest of the world which are critical for an international show like Tissue World that draws thousands of visitors from 88 countries on every continent; a top-level selection of hotels to fit any budget range; excellent restaurants and nightlife; the Mediterranean flavor and compact size of the city which give it a welcoming, lively yet cozy atmosphere; the mild climate, seafront, beaches and mountains; and Barcelona’s rich history and world-famous architecture.

Survey supports Barcelona and two-year cycle
A confirming factor in the decision to bring the event to Barcelona for the first time was the survey taken last year of all Tissue World visitors and exhibitors, which showed a very clear preference for Barcelona. As an added note, the survey revealed an overwhelming preference for the Tissue World event to remain on a two-year cycle.

After having been held in beautiful Nice for nearly 20 years, the general idea is to begin rotating the big Tissue World event among a selection of cities. Nice continues to be highly appreciated by the attendees and the rotation of the Tissue World events may certainly include Nice in the future.

About Tissue World
The Tissue World show, which started in Nice in 1993, is the BIG ONE in the Tissue World series and is supported by two somewhat smaller regional events. These are Tissue World Asia in Shanghai targeting the Asian market and Tissue World Americas in Miami focusing mainly on the North and South America markets. Tissue World is clearly the leading global event series covering soft hygienic tissue products such as facial tissue, household paper towels, toilet tissue, handkerchiefs and table napkins.

The unique combination of the high-level Senior Management conference, the very targeted, hands-on Technical Sessions and Workshops, and the giant Trade Show featuring essentially all of the world’s suppliers to the tissue business, make Tissue World a ‘must-attend’ event for all tissue professionals. Tissue products are a very important category in the fast moving consumer goods (FMCG) business, with an estimated global value amounting to USD 70 billion per annum.
