TiO2 WORLDWIDE UPDATE

ISSN 1350-908X

Launched 1993 - Now in its thirtieth year of publication

TiO2 Worldwide Update - the independent newsletter for the industry, the first and the best - was launched at the beginning of 1993 as the product of a "hands across the ocean" alliance between Artikol (of Beckenham, England) and International Business Management Associates (IBMA, of Hilton Head Island, USA). With effect from 1 January 2014, Artikol has 100% responsibility for the publication of and copyright in TiO2 Worldwide Update.

Reg Adams (of Artikol) is the editor of TiO2 Worldwide Update, bringing to this role the benefit of more than 40 years' experience of analysing and writing about TiO2 and related topics. The newsletter does much more than simply collate the news, it also provides strategic comments on and penetrating insights into the key issues facing the industry and individual industry participants.
