COMPETENCE IN PAPER

Happy Holidays

Dear members and friends of ZELLCHEMING,

At the end of this eventful year, which has not only demanded a lot from all of us, but also opened up new perspectives, I would like to draw your attention to the steps that ZELLCHEMING has taken in the past 12 months, which make us looking forward to 2021 with confidence and energy!

In this context I would like to mention the following milestones:

Mission Statement

What started with a series of workshops in January 2020 was completed in early autumn. ZELLCHEMING now has a modern, contemporary Mission Statement supported by all members.

Modern infrastructure

Even before the outbreak of Corona, a modern technical infrastructure was commissioned for the office, which was made available (almost) in time of the start of the restrictions. This means that management and employees can work flexibly and are there for you - on the go, in the home office or in the office.

Technical committees' and district groups' meetings: now virtually

The ZELLCHEMING technical committees and district groups also handle the restrictions constructively: Instead of face-to-face meetings, telephone or video conferences are held, most recently with the virtual district group meeting on November 26th on the subject of the "EU Single Use Plastics Directive" and microplastics in the paper industry - with 115 participants and a lively discussion it was a raving success!

Setting the course for the future

The members' survey by postal voting with the option of online voting had a distinct result: As of July 31, 2020, a clear majority of those surveyed spoke out in favor of a clear separation of voluntary and economic activities henceforth.

Foundation of ZELLCHEMING Service GmbH

ZELLCHEMING Service GmbH was founded officially on September 3rd, 2020.

ZELLCHEMING-Expo postponed to 2021

The event scheduled for June 2020 in the Frankfurt exhibition halls had been canceled in view of the effects of the corona pandemic. June 9 and 10, 2021 has been set as the new date for the ZELLCHEMING-Expo. The first response is very positive. As of December 15, 2020, 54% of the exhibition space was booked by exhibitors.

Return to Wiesbaden

Lead management for ZELLCHEMING-Expo

ZELLCHEMING has been responsible for the Expo again since July 2020. This includes the ranges of organization, visitor support, and communication as well as marketing. At the same time, the close collaboration with Mesago is continued: The exhibition company will still be responsible for the business segments exhibitor support and service.

Communicative recruitment

Since July 1st, Susanne Haase has been working as a freelance Director Media & Communications for ZELLCHEMING. Up-to-date and effective internal and external communication is one of the things that determine the success of a company or organization today.

Focus on scientific and technical work

The greater goal is to position the association, which has been in existence for over 115 years, stable and secure for the upcoming decades. By demerging the commercial dominance and outsourcing it from the organizational structure the voluntary activities are consolidated. This allows the association to concentrate more on scientific and technical work and thus sharpen its profile as an important link between research and industry and attend to this role more intensively.

I wish you and your families a pleasant and restful Holiday Season! Please stay healthy and have a good start into a happy and successful year 2021!

Yours,
Petra Hanke
