Marketing & Sponsorship Opportunities

Training Courses in Extrusion & Drying — Europe, Asia, Americas, Australia

Overview

These short courses are presented by Dennis Forte & Associates.

The Extrusion courses cover the principles of extrusion, the design of extrusion processes and the formulation of the respective extruded products. Principles learned are demonstrated using the extruder in the pilot plant. The courses apply to both single and twin screw extrusion technology. The courses cover topics from the basics of extruders and their configuration, through what is happening chemically and physically inside the extruder barrel, to an understanding of extruder dies and extruder instability.

The 2-day Drying program covers the theory relating to drying processes, and its practical application, and is relevant to all types of food and feed products.

Marketing / Sponsorship Opportunities

We are offering the following options to companies who provide equipment and services relevant to extrusion or drying.

(i) Sponsorship Opportunities

Day Sponsorship — The company is named as the sponsor for one of the training days by the following means:

• Via the course website/s (with a link to their company website);

• In copies of the course program/s sent out to all participants, and in the course notes;

• A sign at breaks on the relevant day acknowledging the company's support (or the company could provide their own banner or sign for display on that day); and

• A representative of the company may choose to address participants for 10 to 15 minutes on their nominated day.

Registration of this person for that day only is included in the sponsorship fee.
