The paper stock industry is facing new
economic, legislative, and environmental challenges in the 1990s. Paper
industry professionals will confront these and other recycling issues at
the Paper Stock Institutes annual conference.
These
issues and more will be discussed at the 29th annual conference of the
Institute of Scrap Recycling Industries's Paper Stock Institute (PSI), to
be held Nov. 7-10 at the Hyatt Regency Grand Cypress Hotel in Orlando,
Fla.
The
conference, titled "re: cyclemania/90," will provide up-to-date
industry information from representatives of major paper mills and
government agencies.
Committee
meetings and roundtables will address such topics as:
the
role of the packer/broker in the changing paper industry;
PSI's
role in responding to increases or surcharges by shipping lines;
the
potential effects of legislation mandating recycled content m paper goods;
and
PSI's
role in formulating public recycling policies.
The
conference will also look at production methods, promotional efforts,
paper grading, and overall industry trends.
Attendees
can talk with colleagues from around the country, establishing or
reaffirming valuable industry contacts. "One of the most important
benefits of these meetings is the exchange of information," says Stan
Litman of Dal-Tex Waste Material Co. (Dallas), one of three cochairs of
PSI's conference committee. He points out that the conference will also
benefit scrap metal processors, who may find themselves expanding their
operations into scrap paper in the 1990s.
When
not working, attendees can enjoy the amenities offered by the hotel,
including five restaurants, a golf course designed by Jack Nicklaus, a
21-acre lake with white sand beach, tennis courts, health facilities, and
an equestrian center. The Nov. 10 closing banquet will offer entertainment
by comedian Jack Carter, and visitors can "break away" to visit
some of Florida's most popular tourist attractions, such as Walt Disney
World, Cypress Gardens, Sea World, and Busch Gardens, Tampa--all within
two hours of the hotel.
