INDA’s Filtration 2016, which takes place from 8-10 November at the Pennsylvania Convention Center in Philadelphia, is expected to draw more than 1,500 attendees and around 140 exhibitors for industry-leading presentations, filtration educational training, face-to-face engagement, and exhibitions of the latest products and applications.

Evolving markets, changing health requirements, and breakthroughs in water filtration will be explored during the international conference and exposition, according to organisers.

“New demands are creating dynamic change in air and liquid filtration, and Filtration 2016 will provide attendees with valuable solutions,” said Dave Rousse, INDA’s president. “The latest industry innovations and product breakthroughs in our industry will be showcased at Filtration 2016.”

Nonwoven Filter Media training course

INDA continues its acclaimed Nonwoven Filter Media training course at Filtration 2016, which will be held from 8-9 November. This one and a half-day training course will cover the principles of filtration and market and technology trends, providing participants with an overall understanding of nonwovens used in air and liquid filtration.

Last year’s training in Chicago drew the largest-ever attendee count and INDA expects ongoing strong interest, organisers report.
