Time to Book for SPA June Conference... places are going fast !
Sheet Plant Association 96th Conference ... read on to see what we have planned for this the most popular Conference in the SPA calendar. Below is the full run down of content/presentations and we will (weather permitting) have an evening of 'alfresco' Drinks & BBQ on the banks of the River Avon. The venue is the newly refurbished Crowne Plaza (formerly Holiday Inn) on the River In Stratford.
The Agenda is packed with great presentations and we are launching our newest SPA Initiative - 'GDPR Compliance'...
The rest of the Agenda looks like -
Paper Market and Sheetfeeding Update - an update on the ever changing paper supply situation. We will be hearing from a Paper Buyer and a Paper Broker on what is actually happening in the market for paper.
The Fall from Favour of Single Use Plastics and the Effect on the Demand for Paper – can the Paper Industry in the UK, Europe and Globally gear up to satisfy the increased demand for Paper and Paper based products…. ? We are delighted to welcome Simon Weston (MICWM) Director of Raw Materials for the Confederation of Paper Industries (CPI) as our keynote speaker - he will be exploring the effect on demand for, and use of, paper as a substitute for single use plastics.
Digital vs Analogue - a debate on 'which is best for what application?' Les Pickering and Nick Kirby will be preaching the benefits of both in a debate style session... Hopefully concluding which format is best for what applications.
