Submit Your Paper

Technical Topics and Speaker Guidelines

Speakers must provide:

• A short biography (150 words).
• A recent headshot.
• An abstract (100–200 words) summarizing the paper and its relevance to tissue makers and converters.

Preferred Track:
Speakers may indicate a preference for presenting on the TECH TALKS stage or in the TECHNICAL CONFERENCE SESSIONS. While the review committee will strive to accommodate these preferences, session placement cannot be guaranteed.

Presentation Topics:

Abstracts should align with one of the following preliminary topics:

• Papermaking Developments
• Sustainable Improvements: Energy Reduction and Savings
• Wrapping, Packaging, and Logistics
• Pulping, Fibers, and Raw Materials
• Innovation and Process Improvements
• Auxiliary Components in Tissue Making

Guidelines for Presenters:

1. Present innovative or improved technology relevant to tissue making and converting.
2. Focus on Benefits and Results—presentations highlighting only features will not be accepted.
3. Keep the presentation concise, engaging, and impactful. Avoid overly detailed scientific discussions; instead, emphasize key takeaways for tissue makers and converters. More details can be shared at your booth during the event.
4. Priority will be given to papers developed in collaboration with mill personnel as case studies.
5. Presentations must be non-commercial—sales pitches are strictly prohibited. Focus on technology and its practical applications for the tissue industry.
6. Presentations must not exceed 15 minutes. Adhering to this time limit is mandatory.
7. If your abstract is accepted, the final presentation must be submitted to [email protected] no later than 17 March 2025.

Abstract Submission Deadline:

Submit your abstract as soon as possible to increase your chances of being included in your preferred technical track. The final deadline for submissions is 17 January 2025.
