Review of the PTS Research Forums 2026

Where does fiber research stand today? What opportunities and challenges do small and medium-sized enterprises and industry currently face?

We explored precisely these questions at our three-day research forums together with experts from industry and research.

The focus was on the following topics:

New markets: The potential of fiber-based materials
Material development: Fiber-based and bio-based products
Circular packaging: Recyclability and smart services

In addition to insights into ongoing and completed projects, there were exclusive tours through our laboratories and pilot plants, as well as plenty of time for professional and personal exchange.

A big thank you to all participants for the inspiring discussions and new ideas. We are already looking forward to next year.
