We are living in an ever changing world which also has an impact on the tissue industry. Climate change, AI and new technologies, just to mention a few, are things we all need to relate to in one way or another. The program includes technology highlights and new innovations from tissue making, converting, automation and services.
Speakers
During this seminar, the futurist and author Amelia Kallman will enlighten us about how AI can be a tool for the industry, while Bernard Lombard from Cepi will raise the topic of regulations and taxation impacting the tissue business. Rickard Fornell from RISE institute highlights how to move from environmental footprint to handprint. During the event Valmet experts will also enter the stage together with invited customers.
Deep dive into topics of your interest and visit the pilot machine
On the second day you will have the opportunity to dive deeper into the topics in a set of breakout sessions where you can discuss with our experts and get your questions answered. And if you haven’t visited our production area and seen the pilot machine in full operation - now is the time.
For the first time ever we open up Tissue Technology Center exclusively for our guests to watch the pilot machine running in Through Air Drying mode.
