36 bioplastics MAGAZINE [04/23] Vol. 18
Best Of
Milestones
As early as for the first issue
we travelled to Switzerland and
talked to Nestlé about bioplastics.
The Top-Talk is a series that was
reinstalled just recently.

In the first year, we also
hopped across the pond for
the first time to present
bioplastics MAGAZINE to
an US audience at the NPE
trade show in Chicago.

For the fifth
anniversary issue,
we were lucky to find
Innovia (now Futamura)
to sponsor a metalcoated
Natureflex film
for a silver-coated
cover page.
The first conference organized in 2007 was the “PLA Bottle
Conference” soon to be replaced by the PLA World Congress
and to be followed by many other conferences. But other than the
big events, we always concentrated on very focused niche topics
such as bioplastics for toys or certain bioplastic materials. The
Bioplastics Business Breakfasts at the K-Show are always very much
appreciated by the trade show visitors.
