November 22, 2018
Eleventh JEC Asia celebrates composite materials

JEC Asia, the annual meeting for the Asia-Pacific professionals of the composites industry, organised for the second time in a row held at Seoul’s COEX Centre November 14-16, has met its high expectations attracting +12% participants and acting as a major showcase for the composites industry in the region.

Gauging from the attendance of more than 7,000 professional visits from 49 countries, Eric Pierrejean, CEO of JEC Group, has already announced during the opening ceremony that JEC Asia 2019 will return next year on November 13, 14, 15, 2019.

This ceremony was attended by industrialists, academics and officials, reflecting the huge interest that composite materials generates.

Hosting, this year again, the International Carbon Festival organised by KCTECH and the Jeonju region, JEC Asia also provided a comprehensive programme dedicated to the automotive professionals with a leadership circle attended by top stakeholders of the industry worldwide, top-notch conferences on automotive automated processes and composite applications for structural parts with speakers from Hyundai Motor Group, e-Xstream Engineering, L&L Products, Cobra International, Hanwha Advanced Materials, Daimler, Hankuk Carbon, Arkema, Cetim, Saertex & Co. KG to name a few.

‘Aeronautics: 53% and beyond’ conferences took place and attracted many attendees to discover new composites solutions and their wider use in this sector. JEC Asia also offered its participants a chance to find out new business opportunities, highlighting the most relevant for the region and various application sectors.

All in all, the show floor was filled with innovations as JEC Asia 2018 showcased innovative parts and awarded 12 composites International champions among which three were about automotive, at the JEC Innovation Awards ceremony.

Also, to be noted at JEC Asia was the focus on networking with pre-arranged Business meetings that generated +450 qualified one-to-ones over the three days. Likewise, three composites tours opened exclusive doors to attendees when they visited Hanyang University, the composite architecture of the House of Dior, LG Hausys & Kolon and a day trip in Jeonju region and the Carbon Valley of the KCTECH.

For the first time, JEC Asia teamed up with MAI Carbon to offer a brand-new Student Programme that keeps abreast of composite-industry needs to hire young, committed well-trained engineers. The two-part programme included workshops with a focus on theoretical foundations and a guided tour through the JEC Asia trade show and the innovation planet.
