This year's TEF provided international tray experts with a platform for the exchange of information, experiences, and views on high‑capacity trays, including details of the latest developments in tray manufacturing. The participants described TEF 06—with its high-level presentations and well-led panel discussions—as a very well organized and worthwhile event. The next TEF for industry experts is scheduled to take place in 2009.

Sulzer Chemtech is also planning to introduce an annual Sulzer Tray Forum in each region, which all clients will be able to attend.
