The Dow Chemical Company, a leader in specialty chemicals delivering products and solutions to several markets, has confirmed its sponsorship of the Plastics Pipes XIX Conference and Exhibition at Gold Level, to be held next month, in Las Vegas, US.

This event will take place from September 24 to 26, at the Red Rock Resort.

Sarah Patterson, chair of the PPXIX organizing committee (OC) for the Plastic Pipes Conference Association (PPCA), said: “We are delighted to welcome the Dow Chemical Company on board as sponsor of the conference.”

“This material supplier of long standing continues to produce innovative solutions within the plastic pipe pressure segments,” she said.

“For almost 120 years, Dow has expanded successfully on the original business vision of founder Herbert H Dow. Throughout the years, it has developed multifaceted solutions and the right product porfolios to widen the range of plastic pipe applications,” she added.

Patterson also reports that the Brussels-based PVC4Pipes Association will sponsor one of the IPAD corners during the conference and exhibition.

The association promotes the benefits of PVC pipe systems throughout the world. PVC4Pipes recently joined forces with The European Council of Vinyl Manufacturers (ECVM) to amplify the promotional approach.

She added: “PVC pipes were first installed commercially over eighty years ago. Once installed and usually out of sight, these pipes and their benefits are never out of mind. And certainly not by users.”

“Our industry continues to be shaped by invention and our technology continues to create significant worldwide demand for its application in new, replacement and rehabilitation projects. This conference explores the scope and scale of technical innovation and the market expertise that underscores the vitality and versatility of the industry,” Patterson added.

“The participation of these sponsors reflects PPXIX as one of the key platforms for the industry to speak with one voice,” she concluded. – TradeArabia News Service
