Medical/Hygiene

Organized by INDA and EDANA, a tabletop exhibition will also be offered for local and international companies to showcase their products and services. The three-day conference will examine economic and market statistics, products, and technology intelligence for the hygiene, personal care, and medical market segments.

Programme

March 7 and 8 will focus on the latest developments in nonwovens for the Latin American and global absorbent hygiene and personal care products markets, and presenters will analyse trends in components and raw materials for those products.

On March 9, additional highlights on medical nonwovens and their role in a healthy society will be addressed. Simultaneous translation in English, Portuguese, and Spanish will be provided during the conference.

Future growth

“While economic forecasts for Latin America predict contracted growth in 2016, economists and business alike agree on the wealth of natural resources across the region, and a local population whose demand for, and ability to produce hygiene products, makes Latin America a key region for future growth and investment of the broader nonwovens industry,” said Pierre Wiertz, General Manager of EDANA.

“With the national economies of countries like Chile, and Mexico predicted to gain momentum in 2016, the region’s diversity offers both local and international businesses opportunities for development.”

Business opportunities

“Outlook Plus Latin America provides the opportunities for members from both of our associations to better understand Latin American market needs, make valuable connections with senior leaders, showcase their products, and increase their business opportunities in this important and growing region of the world for hygiene and medical nonwovens,” said Dave Rousse, President of INDA.

Tabletop exhibitions will be held from 7-8 March, and opportunities for participants to meet and network will be offered during the conference, and to registered delegates with evening cocktail events.

The inaugural event was held in São Paulo in March 2015, and attracted more than 250 attendees with participants declaring the first-ever Latin American event a success for their businesses.
