In Full Swing...

TREE has really hit the ground running since the new year.  Currently students are working to make contact with possible locations to tour in the Austria and Germany areas.  The students route will take them from Munich, Germany to Graz, Austria for the first leg of their excursion.  The students will then return to Munich for the weekend and will travel to Ludwigshafen, Germany and attend several tours on the way.  The students will then return to Munich for their final weekend before flying back home.  Currently efforts are being made to tour facilities belonging to the following companies:

• BASF
• Andritz
• Sappi
• Voith
• Glatfelter
• Xerium
• UPM
• SHW
• Shaefer Rolls

If you have a suggestion for a tour or if you are interested in making a donation please contact Jon Lee at jonathan.lee@maine.edu.  Tour slots are filling and we are trying to accommodate as many companies as we can.

Thank you to everyone who is involved in organizing this pulp and paper safari.  Without your continued efforts, this trip would not be possible!
