TAPPI
TAPPI is a registered not-for-profit , international Non-Governmental Organization of about 14,000 member engineers, scientists, managers, academics and others involved in the areas of pulp, and paper.Converting companies are companies that specialize in combining raw materials such as polyesters , adhesives, silicone , tapes, foams, plastics, felts, rubbers, liners and metals, as well as other materials, to create new products. Materials such as paper , plastic film, foil and cloth often are produced in long, continuous sheets that are rolled up for more-convenient handling and transportation. These rolls of material vary significantly in size and weight — ranging from 2 to 200 in. wide and weighing as much as several tons.
