The main categories of editorial material published are:

These should be a brief description of the product, where and how it is used, in about 150-250 words. The information would include new releases or upgrades to existing products, including the model numbers and version numbers where appropriate. A photograph accompanying the text is optional.

The releases should include the company contact details, including the postal address and email address (if there is one). Companies offering a new service may submit a description of this service under the aegis of “new products”.

Technical articles should concentrate on new technology, techniques, or trends in the industry. They must not give overemphasis to a particular product or company. Quotes should be avoided.

The articles should be 1200-2000 words and photographs and diagrams are desirable. It is advisable to contact the editor before preparing a technical article.

These articles are often better known as “case studies”. They are generally much shorter (500-600 words) than a technical article and describe how a particular product or technology has been applied in a real-world, industry situation.

For example, if a project was being undertaken which needed to overcome a particular hurdle and your company undertook to provide a solution, then a brief explanation of the original problem and how it was overcome would qualify under this editorial type.

Short news items of 50-100 words, including details of current events, exhibitions, interesting or unusual applications of products, new distributor appointments and major contracts are acceptable.
