Print Print this article | Send to Colleague

This message comes to you as a friendly reminder from TAPPI that the early registration date for the TAPPI Essentials of Market Pulp course is April 1- only days away.

This course was developed from the growing demand for the most current information on pulp qualities and availabilities in the global marketplace. Three world-renown course instructors are coming together April 30 before the PaperCon 2011 convention to address the questions they encounter in their fields.

"In seminars and my interactions with paper mills, I've found considerable interest in all species of softwoods and for what each is best suited. Acacia, both Acacia Mangium and Acacia Cassacarpa, and cold-weather-resistant Eucalyptus (E.Nitens, E.Dunii) have gained particular attention. In this course, we will discuss these pulp selections, as well as species for specific use, such as Black Spruce, for example, found to be best suited for premium facial tissue; Douglas Fir for towelling; and White Spruce for fast response to refining." - Dave Hillman, Course Instructor and Pulp Expert
