Why visit JEC World?

JEC World is much more than a trade show: it is the must-attend event to discover the full breadth and potential of composite materials. Whether you are already familiar with this universe or exploring it for the first time, you will find a unique source of inspiration and opportunities.

Composites are shaping the future of many industries today, from aerospace to sports, from architecture to shipbuilding. Their lightness, strength, and adaptability make them valuable allies in meeting today’s industrial and environmental challenges. At JEC World, you will explore the wide diversity of available technologies – from glass to carbon fiber, from thermoplastics to thermosets – and discover how innovations in simulation, optimization, assembly, and production open up new perspectives in design and performance.

It is also the place where industry leaders, experts, and manufacturers from all over the world come together. A privileged space to understand trends, exchange with key players, and build the strategic partnerships that will drive your projects forward.

Whether you are an engineer, designer, researcher, buyer, or decision-maker, JEC World offers you a complete experience: a global panorama of composite solutions and a deep dive into the innovations transforming products and applications.

Don’t just attend a trade show: experience JEC World and discover how composite materials are pushing the boundaries of what is possible every single day.

In just three days, you save precious time by accessing in one place everything the world of composites has to offer at its very best.

Solutions and innovations for all markets

At JEC World, we address all stakeholders from the many sectors represented below, such as automotive, aerospace and space, construction, renewable energies, medical, infrastructure, electronics, sports, and many more. They all share common challenges: improving performance, reducing carbon footprint, accelerating innovation, and meeting evolving market expectations. Composite materials provide concrete answers. A few examples:

Automotive & Transportation: in response to increasingly stringent CO₂ emission regulations, manufacturers are striving to reduce vehicle weight without compromising safety. Composites enable significant weight reduction while ensuring high mechanical strength and easier functional integration.

Aerospace & Space: airlines and OEMs must optimize every kilogram to reduce fuel consumption and operating costs. Already widely used in fuselages and wings, composites also deliver superior fatigue resistance and durability under extreme conditions.

Construction & Infrastructure: asset managers must deal with corrosion, high maintenance costs, and strict sustainability standards. Composites provide lightweight solutions resistant to aggressive environments (salt, humidity, chemicals), extending service life and reducing maintenance needs.

Energy & Environment: the large-scale deployment of renewable energy requires materials that combine performance and durability. Composites are indispensable for XXL wind turbine blades, high-pressure hydrogen tanks, and next-generation energy storage solutions.

Medical & Sports: the growing demand for customized, ergonomic, and reliable equipment drives the adoption of lighter, biocompatible, and durable composites—improving both patient quality of life (prosthetics, implants) and athletic performance (bicycles, rackets, skis).

At the show, international exhibitors demonstrate how these solutions translate into industrial innovations: new low-carbon fibers and resins, advanced and automated manufacturing processes (RTM, infusion, 3D printing), recycling technologies, and the integration of smart sensors into parts.

JEC World is therefore the must-attend event to identify solutions, anticipate market evolutions, and build partnerships to support industries in their transformation journeys.
