Hygienix™ 2025 to Spotlight Sustainability, Advanced Materials, and Next-Gen Innovations (9/11/25)
INDA, the Association of the Nonwoven Fabrics Industry, has announced the conference program for Hygienix™ 2025, the premier event for absorbent hygiene and personal care markets, taking place November 17–20 at the Omni Orlando ChampionsGate, FL. The complete program is now available on the Hygienix website. Hygienix™ 2025 will bring together global leaders to explore the forces shaping the absorbent hygiene industry, including sustainability breakthroughs, regulatory updates, and next-generation product innovations. “Having attended every Hygienix since its inception, what I always found valuable was the ability to connect with both my suppliers and customers at the same event,” said Matt O’Sickey, PhD, INDA Director of Education & Technical Affairs. “Having both my technical and commercial team members with me in those meetings allowed us to take quick decisions that accelerated programs and ultimately enhanced our speed to market, elevated our hit rate and improved our overall ROI. Now with INDA I appreciate the efforts made to provide actionable market and technical content and facilitate the supply chain connectivity that was so critical for my success in the corporate world. Hygienix is an exhausting week in the very best possible way,” said O’Sickey.
