The international trade fair InterSupply is taking place for the third time this year. From 22 to 24 September 2017, the entire tobacco industry will meet at the Westfalenhallen Dortmund. The spectrum of exhibits ranges from paper and machinery to packaging and flavourings. The trade fair organisers are expecting around 80 exhibitors from around 24 countries.
The trade fair is aimed at specialists and managers from the areas of purchasing, production management, product development, research and development as well as quality management and controlling from the entire field of Tobacco product manufacturing. All exhibitor target groups whose services and products are used in companies in the tobacco industry are addressed, including folding carton manufacturers, printers, machine manufacturers for the production and packaging of products in cartons, collies and boxes, as well as their producers.
Broad spectrum represented
With U.S. Tobacco Cooperative and Universal Leaf two of the world's largest tobacco suppliers are already taking part. Camtek Tobacco International from Singapore, Flue Cured Verona from Italy and Pasinfo-Grup from Moldova will also be presenting raw tobacco. But packaging is also a central theme of the trade fair. Schur Star Systems for example, part of the Danish Schur Group, produces prefabricated chain bags for the patented Schur-Star packaging machine concept. Schur-Star chain bags can be made from polyethylene, polypropylene and as laminates. BMJ from Indonesia, on the other hand, is a well-known supplier of cigarette paper that is exhibiting at InterSupply for the first time. Also specialising in paper is the Tierenberg Holding GmbH from Austria. Nemuno Banga from Lithuania produces filters: dual filters, unbleached paper filters that are used for natural products, or flavoured filters that can be individually adapted to the customer's wishes. ADT Machinery is internationally recognised for the production of banding machines, wrapping machines for tobacco bundles, packaging machines for cigars and cigarettes and cutting machines. The Dutch company develops machines for the entire tobacco manufacturing process. Hertz Flavours not only has a well-known name in its German homeland. The company specialises in the production of flavourings. This means that important topics at InterSupply will once again be covered by well-known exhibitors, which also emphasises the trade fair's international appeal.
