Parallel to this, for the first time, there will be a training event for European distill- ers and representatives from the spirits industry: the 1 st European MicroDistilling Symposium. Also featured is the interna- tional beer competition European Beer Star, the popular tradition at BrauBevi- ale is the selection of the Consumers’ Favourites in Gold, Silver and Bronze. On all three days of the fair, there will be presentations and discussions held by experts for experts at the Forum BrauBeviale.

If you wished to consult any of these specialist subject areas, you had to go through the booklets one by one to find what you were looking for. A cumbersome process. To make things easier, we have now clearly listed all our market overviews on WikiPETia.info on one page. One click will take you to your desired page. For any other information, simply go to the www.WikiPETia.info pa ge, via the market surveys, and on to the pdfs of the relevant issues. To date, we have linked the subject areas there with the pdfs of the issues in which the relevant market overview was published. But we won’t be stopping there: we are also gradu- ally converting the surveys from the booklet into sortable wiki tables. This will then allow you to sort the tables according to the parameters most important to you, thus enabling you to access relevant information easily and quickly. Currently, the following topics are available in sortable wiki tables: Additives, Resins, Compressors. And if you would like to have your details in the table, but are not included as yet, you can as always contact PETplanet’s editorial office in confidence.
