About Tissue World

The Tissue World show, which started in Nice, France, in 1993, is the BIG ONE in the Tissue World series and is supported by two somewhat smaller regional events. These are Tissue World Asia in Shanghai targeting the Asian market and Tissue World Americas in Miami focusing mainly on the North and South America markets. Tissue World is clearly the leading global event series covering soft hygienic tissue products.

The unique combination of the high-level Senior Management panels, the very targeted, hands-on Technical Sessions and Workshops, and the giant Trade Show featuring essentially all of the world's suppliers to the tissue business, make Tissue World a 'must-attend' event for all tissue professionals.
