Composites: Jec 2016 changes its name and moves to Villepinte

With a 13% increase in the number of exhibitors and visitors, the Jec Europe 2015 trade show, held from 10 to 12 March in Paris, has once again established itself as the major global event of the composites industry, bringing together international players from across the value chain.

"As a logical consequence of this success, our show will change its name and site. Aware of the international nature of the Paris show, JEC Europe will become JEC World from the next edition, scheduled for March 8-10, 2016. In addition, given the steady increase in the number of industrialists and visitors, the world's largest composite materials fair needs to adapt its size and organization. This is why it will be transferred to the largest site in France: the Paris-Nord Villepinte Exhibition Park, where next year it will have 62,000 m2 of exhibition space," adds Frédérique Mutel, President and CEO of the Jec Group.

The group also announced:

• strengthening its activities on the American continent, with the organization of the^4th edition of the JEC Americas trade show in Houston in June, as well as in Asia, with the^8th JEC Asia, also planned in Singapore this year;
• New partnerships in Latin America and South Africa;
• an ever-increasing support for the innovation force of the composites sector;
• a first edition of the successful Composites for Better Living by JEC space.
