TissueCon 2019 takes place October 1-4 in Orlando, FL, and represents the only non-commercial, peer-reviewed event of its kind occurring in North America this year. The program offers a dual focus on technical advancements in tissue making and market intelligence driving the future of the industry.

Get ready to expand your knowledge with content that includes:

  • How to control the winding process without slippage, while also reducing/preventing paper dust
  • Noise cancellation material that blocks sound with the same effectiveness as 12 inches of poured concrete
  • Improving fuel efficiency by 20% while at the same time reducing emissions by 40%

TissueCon’s overall program also features in-depth discussions around some of the industry’s most significant developments:

  1. Global and Business Insights – Covering international policy, global trends in manufacturing, and availability of natural resources.
  2. Softness – Covering what creates consumer perception of softness, including, chemicals (treatments), mechanical (creping, converting), materials used (fibers, wood type and recycled materials), and psychological (packaging).
  3. Modeling and Data Management – Covering the move from data collection to artificial intelligence (AI) and how it is significantly aiding producers in making real-time adjustments versus post-process analysis.
