Advanced Engineering 2017 has of the 12th July announced that its Composites zone is over 90% full with only 10 stands remaining. Companies such as Meggitt Polymers & Composites and Hexcel will be participating at the show.
The Composites Engineering zone has already attracted leading names from the industry, including Mercedes Amg F1 and 3M Advanced Materials UK, who will be looking to meet and do business with other industry individuals.
The show has established itself as one of the world’s most important composite raw material, design, processing and applications events. New for this year are: a dedicated zone for industry 4.0, Connected Manufacturing; an expanded zone for start-ups sponsored by Magna International; and a brand new co-locating show, Lab Innovations, for laboratory manufacturers and suppliers.
Advanced Engineering 2017 has also announced a competition to all exhibitors with prizes for those who bring the most visitors to the 2017 show through registering using their trackable link. The two exhibitors who bring the most visitors will win a free 6m2 stand in the 2018 show and a free full-page advert in the 2018 show guide.
“And the industry shows no sign of slowing down. This year, as in previous years, we will welcome thousands of visitors and exhibitors whose businesses are in composites. Come along and see for yourself the fantastic industry we have.”
Mark Crouchen, managing director of Rockwood Composites, added: “This will be our seventh year exhibiting at the Composites Engineering Show. We wouldn’t miss it. It is the place to be to experience at first hand the latest the industry has to offer. So, sign up for a ticket, put the dates in your diary and come and see for yourself the wide range of composites engineering innovations the UK has to offer. That includes Rockwood Composites, and we’re on stand M140.”
Organised by Easyfairs, the Composites Engineering Show, which is one of five zones of Advanced Engineering 2017, takes place on the 1-2 November at the NEC Birmingham. It is the UK's largest annual gathering of composites professionals. It connects the entire supply chain of the UK’s advanced engineering industry with R&D, design, test, production and procurement from large and small companies, through to top tier industry players in a two-day free to attend exhibition and high-level conference.
Advanced Engineering 2017 includes four other co-located zones under one roof: Aero Engineering, Automotive Engineering, Performance Metals Engineering - and new for 2017, Connected Manufacturing which focuses on Industry 4.0.
