It has been a busy fall season for trade shows and conferences in the plastics industry.  In-person events have returned, and ENTEK was proud to be an exhibitor, presenter and sponsor at two of them. 

Sponsored by AMI, the Compounding World Expo was held in Cleveland on November 3-4, as part of an event that also included the Plastics Recycling World Expo, the Plastics Extrusion World Expo, and the Polymer Testing World Expo.  ENTEK had a booth at the show and Dean Elliott, ENTEK’s Technical Processing Manager, gave a presentation on ‘Biopolymer Compounding Done Right.’  Attendance at the show was excellent, and Dean gave his presentation to a standing-room only crowd on the opening day of the show.

One week later, Plastics News held its annual ‘Women Breaking the Mold’ conference in Austin, Texas.  ENTEK’s Melissa Jensen-Morgan was inducted into the WBTM Class of 2021, and she and Tammy Straw gave a presentation titled ‘Managing a Project from Start to Finish’.  ENTEK was a sponsor of this event, and hosted a wine tasting reception on the opening night. 

“It was good being back at in-person events,” said Tammy Straw.  “We were very pleased with the turnout at both of them and look forward to getting back to exhibiting and attending at more shows in 2022.”
