- Looking forward to new developmentsPublished: 23 September, 2002At the AGM of the European Panel Federation (EPF) in June, Robert Kokshoorn gave a presentation on behalf of the Asia Pacific MDF Exporters Association (APMEA) of which he is chairman. The main thrust of his address was a call for closer cooperation among MDF producers in the two regions through APMEA and the EPF. He feels such cooperation would have benefits, particularly in marketing initiatives and the generic promotion of MDF as a versatile product. Such promotion has always been a strength of the EPF and with wood products now enjoying long-overdue recognition for their environmentally friendly attributes, a united voice from the MDF industry in Europe and Asia would seem to have many advantages.
