FiberEUse at the JEC World
From 12.-14. March 2019 the JEC World show took place in Paris. With more than 1,300 exhibitors and more than 43,000 professional visits JEC is the biggest composites show in the world.
AVK (as one partner in the FiberEUse project) was present at the show with a shared booth via the umbrella organization Composites Germany (www.composites-germany.com) . For presenting our project we had the possibility to show 2 wine coolers which were produced as demonstrators in the FiberEUse project.
The picture shows Dr. Walter Begemann - Project manager Hybrid Lightweight Technologies VDMA (right) and Dr. Elmar Witten - Spokesman for the management of Composites Germany and Managing Director AVK (left). At the right handside of the picture you see the two wine coolers, which were presented at the booth the whole time. In addition we had a flyer prepared by Design Austria which was given to interested parties.
We had some good conversations at the booth as well as at several meetings concerning the topics sustainability/recycling and our project activities.
