We take a look at some of the very best shows worldwide for the paper industry, both for people within the trade and for the general public.

Paper, New York, USA It can be argued that this is the best and most comprehensive paper exhibition in the US. Although the show is generally held in Chicago it sometimes also held in New York and in other major U.S. cities. People from all areas of the paper industry attend this show, ranging from merchants and distributors, to end use customers such as printers, corporate companies and stationary companies. Some of the key features are speed networking sessions and sessions geared towards forecasting the trends in the paper industry.

SPCI, Stockholm, Sweden This Swedish exhibition is one of the largest of its type in the world for the paper and pulp industry. The exhibition is held every three years and during the 3 day event there are focussed exhibitions and presentations on the paper and pulp industry. International leaders in the field and from countries including Russia, India and Brazil tend to attend this show. SPCI is a great opportunity for meeting other companies worldwide involved with the paper industry.

Apex, Cairo, Egypt This North African exhibition is now approaching its seventh edition and is concerned with paper, printing and packaging. Apex is considered to be one of the best places to meet representatives from emerging markets and showcase the latest technologies to them.
