JEC Group CEO Frédérique Mutel said, “The JEC team has indeed done a wonderful job at presenting composites to the world in the most impressive way.”
“Composite materials continue to become more widespread and in a world where energy savings and recyclability are sought, composites seem to stand out as one of the best answers,” she added.
“Innovative solutions must be found for upcoming challenges in terms of higher performance, lower weight, reduced costs and processing time, while addressing environmental concerns,” Mutel observed.
This year's event also featured the launch of the four Planets, each one addressing a specific end-user market; Aero Planet, Auto Planet; Sports Planet and Sustainable Planet.
“These areas were very popular ones, where attendees could see, touch and experience Innovative composite parts, observe demos, and ask questions about the innovations,” the organiser added.
“To truly reflect the global dimension of the exhibition, which included participants from more than 100 countries, the event has taken on a more suitable name, JEC World,” the organiser too observed.
The show was organised by incorporating new features like a new mobile application, internet connections on the entire floor, a concierge service open to all, and digital touch screens.
Over the three days, participants were able to gather a wealth of information from the 11 top-notch conferences, a few of which were organised in partnership with companies and organisations.
The 30 technical sales presentations and the over 40 presentations on the 'Planets' also covered a vast range of current and future composite topics.
A large delegation of Korean visitors and exhibitors showed up to proudly represent the Republic of Korea and showcased their latest advances, particularly in carbon.
Other noteworthy events included the JEC Innovation Awards with its 29 prize winners; the Automotive Composites Circle; Live-Demo zones; Composites in Action areas and 1,950 B2B meetings. (AR)
