With a four-year record attendance of 360 delegates, the 36th annual conference programme featured industry presentations spanning the absorbent product and personal care supply chain.

Presentations included new product approaches, testing methods, patent issues, segment growth and trends, research and development advances, and sustainability amid multiple receptions and tabletop displays.

INDA Lifetime Service Award

Highlighting the conference was the recognition by INDA, the Association of the Nonwovens Industry, of Jim Hanson, Principal and Director of Marketing Technology Service, with its prestigious INDA Lifetime Service Award.

“INDA is pleased and proud to represent the industry in recognising Jim Hanson’s long and notable record of service to the absorbent products segment of the nonwovens industry. He has consistently demonstrated his best, both personally and professionally to advance the interests of the Nonwovens industry,” said Dave Rousse, INDA President.

“Jim’s pioneering studies and deep knowledge of product design, performance needs and market potentials for the consumer and institutional incontinence markets; also his publishing business and INSIGHT Conference achievements have been an important building block of the industry.”

Combined conferences

Insight, organised for the last time in 2014 by Marketing Technology Service, was acquired by INDA in May and will be combined with its Vision Consumer Products Conference in 2015. 

Synergies of the combined conferences are expected to deliver greater value through more focused content and venues for deeper connections throughout the industry.

The 2015 Insight + Vision Conference will be held in St. Petersburg, FL, from 26-29 October and continue its dedication to the absorbent products and personal care markets.
