The Conference

In 1995 plant designers, engineers, end-users and plant opera-tors for the first time have taken the opportunity to meet and discuss on FRP material and thus gain knowledge and exchange experience on this unique construction material. Since then this Conference has become a worldwide platform for discus-sions on the industry’s issues.

Now for the 10th time participants have the chance to inform themselves about the uses and applications enabled by this “unlimited” material. The international Conference enriches your knowledge by meeting skilled experts and discussing latest findings! Practical experience and reports on the day-to-day use with FRP components are the main focus of the Con-ference. You will benefit from the experience of well-known companies and experts!

The Conference addresses to:

Operators of industrial plants (chemical, power, water ...) Consulting and engineering companies Professionals in plant construction, installation

and operation Manufacturers of FRP components and industrial equipment Companies involved in plant maintenance Authorities and associations Research institutes and universities

Conference languages

German and English. A simultaneous translation into English will be provided for all presentations given in German.
