Paperworld 2011: The International Paper Trade Fair at the Frankfurt Messe in Frankfurt-am-Main, Germany.

Online, February 8, 2011 (Newswire.com) - The light grey sky was slowly entering the people's souls, and very few people, in the trade fair's time frame, would dare to go out there in the open cold of the streets, and if so, only under the warm reassurance of their thick garments.

Others, nevertheless, would dare to cope with this inconvenient martial and cold winter: People having their say in the paper business world and genuine people having an interest in this major element of human history.This major tool in the preservation of human thought, and its transmission to the following generations. Isn't it wonderful opening a book, to realize in the process of reading a word, a line, a paragraph, a page, in the process of reading this material element called paper, that it is all about immateriality, that it is all about an author's thoughts having survived centuries, and even more, millennia.

Yes, the world was present to this great paper celebration without forgetting all those apparels going along with paper: office supplies, school articles, printers, computers, gift articles, wrapping, greeting cards, picture calendars, licensed articles, office paper, household paper, party and festive articles...

The world, indeed, gathered to this great paper celebration like Melchiors, Caspars and Balthazars.

We'll cite: Egypt, of course, for the name of paper seems to originate from the famous Egyptian papyrus. Australia, Belgium, Brazil, Bulgaria, China : a great country in the paper history, Denmark, Germany bringing us back to the memory of Johannes Gutenberg, Johann Fust and Peter Schöffer, Ecuador, El Salvador, Estonia, Finland, France, Greece, Honduras, Hong Kong, India, Indonesia, Japan, Jordan, Canada;

Colombia, The Republic of Korea, Croatia, Kuwait, Latvia, Lebanon, Lithuania, Macao, Malaysia, Mexico, Nepal, New Zealand, Holland, Pakistan, Peru, The Philippines, Poland, Portugal, Romania, Sweden, Switzerland, Serbia, Singapore, Slovakia, Slovenia, Spain, Sri Lanka, South Africa, Syria, Taiwan, Thailand, Czech Republic, Tunisia, Turkey, Ukraine, United Arab Emirates, Hungary, United Kingdom, Vietnam, Cyprus...
