More than 140 major international companies are participating in the 8th edition of Paper One Show, the premier international paper exhibition in the MENA region since 2007. Organised by Al Furat Fair Organizer, the exhibition will be held at the Expo Centre Sharjah from 21-23 February, 2023. The three-day event will be held in conjunction with the MENA Pulp Week 2023, also organised by Al Furat in Dubai, from 22-24 February, 2023.
Al Furat’s CEO Tarek Fakkas revealed that the Paper One Show showcases a list of exhibitors including some of the biggest names in the paper and packaging industries from around the world under one roof, with the aim of displaying the latest products and technologies in the paper, carton, printing, packaging, and wrapping industries. The exhibition is a perfect platform to gain exposure to the latest products and technologies, and opportunities to secure the best returns from investments, with expansion of business networks and contacts by liaising with industry heavyweights of both manufacture and supply.
The event is dedicated to all kinds of paper products, from jumbo paper rolls, tissue and hygienic papers, to printing and writing papers, cartons and paperboards, finished products, and waste paper, besides chemicals used in paper making, airlaid machines, forming fabrics, mill winders, paper cutting machines, pope reeler paper machines, pulpers, and other equipment.
Over the years, the show has attained a reputation in the region, adding value to the paper industry with a series of B2B meetings, fairs, symposiums, and trade missions being held in the MENA region since 2007. Fakkas pointed out that the accompanying events and conferences that are held on the sidelines of the exhibition will contribute to the rapid development of this vital industry in the MENA region, which is already witnessing a boom in developmental activities with increasing levels of economic growth.
With a large number of exhibitors confirming their participation in the upcoming event, the organisers had to increase the number of halls to two with an exhibition space of more than 9,000 square meters to host the pavilions of 140 exhibitors coming from 27 countries.
To set the mood, exhibitors, speakers, and visitors can enjoy a night filled with some great food and a lovely atmosphere with a chance to socialize and network at the Networking Dinner 2023. But as space is limited, pre-booking is highly recommended.
