1st EURECOMP Workshop



Interested in composites and composites recycling? Are you an expert in this field, an undergraduate or graduate student or simply compelled by composites in general? If so, then look no further because we've got what you want-the 1st EuReComp Open Workshop 2023 is here!

The EuReComp project is excited to invite you to join the 1st EuReComp Open Workshop 2023! The workshop is taking place physically on the 20th of April 2023 and will cover a range of topics, including an EoL Composites Market Analysis, the R6 strategy within EuReComp, and the use of composites and recycling in aeronautics and other sectors.

Attendees will have the opportunity to learn about the EuReComp e-learning platform, Composite Recycling Technologies, and Solvolysis Technologies within EuReComp. In addition, the workshop will feature a visit to TUD-ILK facilities where participants will have the chance to see a Lightweight engineering Demonstration and participate in various sessions. This is a unique opportunity to network with industry experts and gain valuable insights into the latest trends and technologies in composite recycling. Participation is open to the entire composite’s community free of charge.

Here is why you can't miss it

  • Exciting presentations by leading researchers
  • Networking with renowned experts in academia & industry
  • Guided visit to TUD-ILK facilities

 

* The workshop will also be available online allowing participants to also attend virtually, with a link to the virtual platform being shared soon.
