From 8 to 9 April, more than 80 participants from Europe, the United States, China and Russia attended the 10th World Pultrusion Conference in Barcelona. The conference is organised by EPTA (the European Pultrusion Technology Association) and takes place every two years. The conference was opened by the chairman Luigi Giamundo from AT (Italy). Then the guests were given a concise overview of the worldwide market development in the area of composites (fibre reinforced polymers) and pultrusion. Fifteen speakers presented information about innovative raw materials, technologies, new applications etc., and recycling and sustainability were one of the major topics. The two days of work were closed with a visit to Owens Corning at the Sant Vicenç plant.
