The European Wood-based Panel Symposium offers participants the opportunity to obtain information concerning the most important trends and current challenges in the wood-based materials industry. For what is already the 12^th time, this event provides a forum in which manufacturers, suppliers and users can exchange information and network with one another.

More than 300 participants are expected from Germany and abroad. They will be able to conduct in-depth discussions during the breaks and at two evening events. The EPF, iVTH, Sasol Wax and further industrial enterprises extend their invitations to the events. This time, even more scope will be offered for personal exchange through the extension of the breaks and the special conception of the evening events.
