25/02/2008

According to the organisers, the inaugural Materials at WSA Expo & Conference held in Las Vegas, USA, last week, “exceeded expectations” and has been hailed as a “resounding success”. 

With over 100 companies from ten countries showcasing their latest innovative materials ranging from leathers, synthetics and textiles through components, to technology and sourcing solutions, big names such as 3M, Dae Woo and Milliken exhibited at the show alongside Italian tanneries and new start-up companies.

“We were dedicated to delivering a show that would become a valuable resource to the footwear industry and all the feedback tells me we’ve done it,” said Courtney Harold, director.
