A first look at ICE Europe 2017 F
rom March 21-23, 2017, ICE Europe will celebrate its jubilee at the Munich Trade
Fair Centre in Germany, presenting technological innovations and the latest manufacturing trends for the conversion of flexible, web-based materials, such as paper, film, foil and nonwovens. The 2017 show will focus on the efficient and sustainable conversion of premium quality flexible materials, as well as on the diversification of converting techniques in the context of automation and digitisation. One of the highlights at this year’s
show will be the presentation of the ICE Europe 2017 Jubilee Awards in four categories. “The tenth edition of ICE Europe
will provide visitors with the latest solutions for the sustainable conversion of web-based materials, with an impressive range of live demonstrations of new machines and systems at the stands,” explained Liljana Goszdziewski, show director of ICE Europe, on behalf of the organisers, Mack Brooks Exhibitions.
“Innovative manufacturing
processes are of the highest relevance for experts in the converting industry, where there is currently a strong demand for new, eco-friendly materials and an increasingly elaborate product design. We are, once again, looking forward to welcoming top industry professionals to source products and information.” This year over 400 international
exhibitors will showcase cutting- edge materials, technology, production solutions and systems as well as services from all key areas of converting. The results of ICE Europe 2015 represented a seven per cent increase in visitor numbers and a 10 per cent increase in exhibitor numbers and floor space. This year’s exhibition starts off
