Newsletters


Attention All GIGSA Members

The GIGSA Newsletter is sent to around 1,500 direct e-mail contact, and is posted on the International Geosynthetics Society (IGS) official web page as well as the GIGSA web site and thus receives a lot of international exposure.
When submitting articles, please ensure that they are written in a professional technical style, and avoid any hint of "puffery". We have had some adverse comment about some past articles, where the companies submitting material for publication adopted a rather 'hard-sell" style, which does not go down too well with many of our readers. Our editorial advisors reserve the right to edit out any such content.

Please limit articles to one A4 page (including high-quality photographs) where possible. Longer articles may be considered if they are particularly interesting, but there is no guarantee that there will be space for such material, in any particular publication. Here's looking forward to great newsletters ahead! Please send all material to peter@kaytech.co.za.

Regards,

Peter Davies
Newsletter Editor
