The PPI Pulp and Paper Week conference has been an important resource for the pulp and paper industry for more than 30 years, helping people stay on top of key industry news, market trends. It's an event that brings together the many sides of the paper industry, hence the slogan, “where the industry meets.” Businesses often rely on Paper Week for their face to face meetings to discuss graphic papers, containerboard and packaging. At Oren International, we go way back with PPI Pulp and Paper Week. Eighteen years back, in fact.

The buzz around food trucks has skyrocketed in the past few years, originating along the west coast and sprawling across the nation as mobile eateries have begun popping up on busy streets everywhere. From gourmet ingredients to unusual menus, food trucks are serving up BBQ, tacos, falafel and even crepes for customers eager to indulge. The food truck trend doesn’t appear to be dwindling, and even big name restaurants and chefs are getting in on the action. At Oren International, we supply food service paper to restaurants of all varieties, including those on wheels.

Oren International will be traveling to the Big Apple for Paper2014 at the end of the month where we will participate in sessions about the latest paper industry news and network with other executives.

With the rising popularity of technology such as eBooks and digital readers, and easy access to smartphones and tablets, traditional paper mills now have the opportunity to create new products in different sectors and industries. Last week we attended the Paper Week 2013 Conference in Chicago, which is a large paper industry event Hosted by the American Forest & Paper Association and the NPTA Alliance. After admiring the green Chicago River in honor of St. Patrick’s Day, we discussed new product innovations with several paper mills, industry partners, customers and paper brokers.
