IDA®2019庆祝Inda的50年

IDEA19SHOWFLOORInda报告了较大的摊位，积极的反馈和关键决策者参加了TriennialIdea®非织造和工程面料活动。

TW特别报告

一种ccording to show organizer — the Cary, N.C.-based Association of the Nonwoven Fabrics Industry (INDA) — more than 6,500 participants and 509 exhibitors took part in the 2019 edition of IDEA®, the nonwovens and engineered fabrics event. Surprisingly, the final attendee figure came in lower than the number that participated in the last edition of the show held in Boston. Most had expected the figures to be higher given the show’s return to its usual Miami location and the fast-growing nature of the nonwovens industry. Theories abound to explain the visitor numbers, but most likely, the packed show calendar was mostly to blame. In a year with many major trade shows in a short space of time, both exhibitors and visitors have to consider time and budgets when choosing shows. Certainly, the amazing warm and sunny weather, and Miami Beach location did not serve as a detractor.

无论如何，Inda对演出的人数和与会者的质量感到满意。Inda总裁Dave Rousse说：“想法在今年的领导地位中提供了异常强大的指标。”“该活动吸引了高水平的关键决策者，这是该节目在国际非织造和工程面料行业中重要性的证明。”

Inda还指出，参展商打破了展览记录，占据了168,600平方英尺的展览空间，这比2016年的展览增长了9％。Inda报道说：“……行业参与者通过更大的展位表达了他们的业务信心。”

INDA used the trade show to celebrate its 50th anniversary. An opening-night reception attracted some 500 people who enjoyed food, drinks and music, as well as a slide show highlighting events and milestones from 1968, the year the organization was founded. Pierre Wiertz, general manager, Belgium-based EDANA, the international association for the nonwovens and related industries; and Lingshen Li, president, China Nonwovens and Industrial Textiles Association, presented Rousse with anniversary gifts to thank INDA for its support and collaboration over the years.

Idea19awardwinnersIdea2019有七个新的非织造培训课程。来自中国，亚洲，欧洲，北美和南美的市场介绍；以及通过“想法成就奖”的行业认可（请参阅框），Idea Ideas Lifetime成就奖和创意创业成就奖。

今年的获奖者的终身成就奖一种ward was Robert Julius, president, Nice-Pak Products Inc., Orangeburg, N.Y., who was recognized for “his lifetime commitment to research, quality, innovation and service.” P&G Venture Labs was the recipient of the IDEA2019 Entrepreneurial Achievement Award.

超过260名与会者还参加了INDA的简短课程和首次想法的培训选项。在非织造基础知识，湿湿巾，吸收卫生和过滤介质中提供了培训。

接受采访的参展商对演出感到满意。蒂特克斯国际有限公司（Tietex International Ltd）董事长/首席执行官马丁·怀尔德曼（Martin Wildeman）说：“这个想法表演对蒂特（Tietex）来说是一个很好的表演。我们的交通比预期的要好，并进行了一些新的联系。我们打算将来再次展示。”

“I thought he overall ambience was very good, and much better than three years ago in Boston,” said Stefan Engel, CEO, American Truetzschler Inc. “The weather and the Miami ambience made this show very pleasant. It offered plenty of customer entertainment possibilities. We saw a great number of visitors, and the first two days were packed with meetings although the last day was slow. I saw a great number of international visitors, and noticed a larger Asian presence of both visitors and exhibitors than previous shows.”

Inda总裁Dave Rousse说：“很高兴回到一个完全现代化的会议中心，回到迈阿密海滩。”“我们对我们成立50周年的接待获得了大力支持，这证实了Inda对非织造行业的持续价值。参展商报告了大量新业务的高质量与会者和会议。我们在各种非织造主题中的新“简短课程”参加了会议。总而言之，对于INDA和全球非织造行业来说，这是一项伟大的事件。”

The triennial event returns to the Miami Beach Convention Center March 28-31, 2022.

IDEA® Gathers Nonwovens Association Leaders From Around The Globe

在Idea®2019期间，INDA与全球非织造行业协会的领导人举办了一场战略会议。该会议旨在解决目前影响全球非织造行业的两个关键问题 - 非织造的自由和公平贸易，以及对塑料对环境的影响的日益关注。

The International Organization for Standardization (ISO) recently published an updated and uniform definition for nonwovens, which introduces the concept engineered material without reference to “textiles.” ISO 9092:2019 defines a nonwoven as an “engineered fibrous assembly, primarily planar, which has been given a designed level of structural integrity by physical and/or chemical means, excluding weaving, knitting or papermaking.”

INDA believes this new definition is a first step in advancing free and fair trade in nonwovens.

在会议期间，与会者同意鼓励在统一的商品描述和编码系统中采用和使用ISO定义，以确保以更相关的方式考虑非织造和非织造产品，以进行关税分类。

在讨论塑料问题时，INDA概述了公众对塑料的关注，可能会影响非织造以及行业可以采取的措施来管理该问题。总部位于比利时的非织造及相关行业协会的埃达娜（Edana）谈到了欧盟单一使用塑料指令以及扩展生产者责任的发展。

“The shared vision of our association leaders is to effectively represent, protect, and actively promote common interests of nonwovens and their related industries throughout the world,” said Dave Rousse, INDA president. “I believe our initial steps on these two current issues are a good start toward global coordination.”
