Thermoforming Today
he 21st Annual Thermoforming Conference and Exhibition will continue to be the premier
forum for the newest techniques, latest equipment, materials, auxiliary equipment and
current industry news. As an Exhibitor, this event will enable you to showcase your products
and services at a show geared just to THERMoFoRMERS! If your company is a player in the
THERMoFoRMInG IndUSTRy, then this is the place for you to be in 2012. This industry event
is a prime opportunity for you to reach the decision makers in the field and create a brighter future for
your business as well.
Full exhibits will be offered. If you are not yet participating in our machinery section, you are encouraged
to do so. Each 10′ x 10′ booth is fully piped, draped, carpeted and a sign will be provided. As an extra value,
one full registration is included with every booth sold. This gives your attendees access to all activities
including Technical Sessions, workshops, Expert Panel discussions and Special Events. A great bargain
at $2,250.00.
We are also offering our sponsors and exhibitors a forum to present their newest innovations through
presentations at our recently introduced Innovation Briefs. Your SPonSoRSHIP or participation as an
EXHIBIToR is contributing to the strength and success of our industry as a whole!
We urge you to join us in Grand Rapids at THERMoFoRMInG 2012! Reserve your space early to avoid
disappointment. Booth assignments and commercial presentation opportunities are made on a first come, first
serve basis.
Should you have questions, please call (706) 235-9298, fax (706) 295-4276

assigned, as in the past on a First Come-First Serve basis based on the date payment is received.
