Previous conferences in 2005 and 2006 were attended by more than 200 participants from recycled fiber enterprises, traders, equipment plants, bottle grade chip suppliers etc, who exchanged opinions about market status and perspective.

Speeches were given by speakers representing the China Chemical Fiber Association, Dr. Thiele Polyester Technology, Gneuß Kunstofftechnik, Rieter Automatic, Amut s.p.a, Ningbo Dafa, Jiangyin Changlong, Hangzhou Fuxing, Xiake Color Spinning, Yangzhou Huitong Polyester Technology etc.

3rd China International Recycled Polyester Fiber Market & Technology Forum is to be held in China during 5-7 Sep 2007. The forum is jointly organized by China Chemical Fiber Economic Information Network(CCFEI)and Polyester Recycling Forum (PRF) run by Gneuss Kunststofftechnik GmbH and Dr. Thiele Polyester Technology.

Hot Topics
• In 2006, recycled fiber capacity in China exceeded 5 million tons per year with a better margin compared with past years. However, with more than 500kt new capacity expected to come on stream in 2007, how should recycled fiber producers find balance between fast growing capacity and tightened feedstock supply, as there are now wider applications for recycled bottle flakes?
• In 2006 a lot of new products emerged. For example, virgin-like recycled fiber, super fine denier fiber, down-feather-like fiber and recycled filament, etc. While enjoying the margin brought by them, how should producers face challenges of technological bottlenecks, and how to expand their applications?
 
• Both EU and the US have carried out anti-dumping measures against recycled polyester fibers from China, seriously damaging China’s share in the world recycled fiber market. How should players cope with it, and continue to push forward their business in the world market?
• Will the industry standards on regular cotton-type, 2-dimensional and 3-dimensional recycled fibers help to improve the quality of recycled fibers?
To discuss the hot issues mentioned above, Recycled Fiber Committee of China Chemical Fiber Association (CCFA), China Chemical Fiber Economic Information Network(CCFEI), Dr. Thiele Polyester Technologies and Polyester Recycling Forum (PRF) will jointly hold 3rd China International Recycled Polyester Fiber Market & Technology Forum during Sep 5-7, 2007, in Hangzhou, Zhejiang Province, China.
