- With the rapid economic growth of the Russian pulp and paper industry we felt there was a need for a dedicated trade show for pulp and paper machinery, says Marcus Bergström, CEO of Adforum. - We have chosen Moscow as its location, as this is the real financial and political centre of Russia providing excellent transportation links from abroad. This gives the exhibition the potential of becoming truly international, Bergström continues.

IPX Russia welcomes exhibitors showing machinery, equipment, accessories and raw material for the pulp and paper related industries. A top level technical conference as well as a number of social activities will take place alongside the exhibition offering participants invaluable networking possibilities. IPX Russia will be part of the well established and reputable Moscow International Forestry Forum, organised since 2003.

IPX Russia is a joint venture between Adforum, the world’s leading organiser of international pulp and paper events, and Restec Brooks Company, a subsidiary of the Restec Exhibition Company, the leading exhibition organiser in Russia.
  
- The Adforum-Restec Brooks partnership is bound to be a successful one, says Alexander Raspopin, MD of Restec Brooks. - Adforum has a strong portfolio of international pulp and paper shows and Restec Brooks has the knowledge and experience when it comes to the Russian market. We are looking forward to working closely with Adforum towards an excellent event.

The first event in the IPX series, launched in 2010, is IPX India 2012, which will be held in Mumbai, December 13-15, 2012.

Founded in 1968, Adforum is the world’s leading organiser of exhibitions for the pulp and paper industry.
