Really enjoyed Method Visit and the size of this conference. It was really good for networking. Dominic D’Amours, Lavo

Enjoyed the conference. I found some new raw materials to work with in lab as well as a better understanding of how ugly the regulatory environment is going to become.
David Keller, BHC Inc.

Very informative. Great networking. Great Location. Worth the time and money. Thanks!
Chuck Coburn, Elevance

Interesting to hear from a company like Lavo in Canada who encounter very similar obstacles with own label customers seeking Eco sustainable private label formulation. Also very good to understand the progress being made in Biosurfactants – which will help us communicate what is (and what will be) possible in the future to our customers. Speakers, Venue All Good! Location Excellent! Personally I found the method tour to be a highlight. Genuinely inspirational. Would have liked to spend longer, visited the lab and been on to the factory floor.
Phillip Kalli, Ideal Manufacturing

Better conference this year than last year. Good Technical Presentations.
David Leonard, Envirocon Technologies Inc.

Great conference with spotlights on technological innovation, relevant policy, and market trends. A little heavy on personal care.
Alex Papadakis, Ele Corporation

Good work! It’s my first time and I enjoy the event.
Alexandre Romanens, Sani Marc
