ICE USA, the International Converting Exhibition, has announced the return of AIMCAL as a VIP sponsor of the 2017 event. The fourth edition of ICE USA is scheduled for April 25-27, 2017 at the Orange County Convention Center in Orlando, FL, USA, and will feature machinery and products for the conversion of paper, film, nonwovens and other web-based materials.
The Association of International Metallizers, Coaters and Laminators (AIMCAL), established in 1970, has been the VIP sponsor since ICE USA first launched in 2011. It will continue this partnership in 2017 and is planning to create four unique educational tracks with topics on web coating, material handling, adhesives, laminating and printing.
“We have over 100 member companies who exhibit at ICE so we work really hard to offer attendees the most relevant information available,” says Craig Sheppard, executive director of AIMCAL. “I believe associations need three ‘legs’ to stand upon - an engaged membership, a relevant publication and a solid trade show. Our partnership with ICE USA allows AIMCAL to offer members that third component. Thus, we are proud to be a VIP sponsor.”
This partnership has been beneficial for both AIMCAL and ICE USA. It has allowed ICE USA to offer a strong and vibrant educational program for attendees and also provide a special pavilion on the trade show floor for AIMCAL members. The turn-key experience gives some AIMCAL members, who might not normally exhibit at ICE USA, a low-risk, low-hassle trade show experience.
In a recent interview with Bob Pasquale, president, New Era Converting Machinery, Inc. and ICE USA 2017 Steering Committee Chair, he confirmed, “It is important for our company to exhibit at events that AIMCAL supports. ICE USA always delivers an excellent return on our investment.”
The previous event, held in 2015, brought together several thousand converting professionals from 43 states and 35 countries, so the 2017 event is expected to build on that success. Key decision makers specializing in engineering, sales, factory management, production and R&D will find innovative solutions to their specific challenges at ICE USA.
