Partner Country Holland

COMPOSITES EUROPE is pleased to welcome Holland as the partner country at this year's exhibition in Essen!

Holland has a long tradition in the development and production of innovative materials, in particular in plastics and composite materials.
Through their innovations for a range of composite application industries, Dutch companies play a key role in the development of the market.

 

Welcome all visitors and participants,

This is the fifth COMPOSITES EUROPE trade fair. From the beginning this fair has been a dynamic event, and this year is no exception. For the first time the fair has a partner country and the country that has been chosen is Holland! The Holland pavilion has been organized by the Dutch Composite Association, VKCN, with much support from the EVD International, agency of the Dutch Ministry of Economic Affairs.

Thousands of visitors are expected these three days from over 50 countries.
This fair is the perfect place where you may be surprised by innovations continuously being made in this field, and at the same time it provides an opportunity for making contacts.

Composites allow freedom in design, while being strong and light. In addition, composite materials can be used outdoors and in aggressive conditions. And last but not least, composites are environmentally friendly because they require less energy in production compared to other materials.

All facets of the composites industry are represented at the fair: product development, raw materials, production of the end product, including the newest application and production technologies.

You are most welcome at the Holland Pavilion which you can find by following the orange footsteps from the entrance. It stands out with the traditional Dutch colors and our cartoon. He is entering the world of composites in the cartoons. Do come by and visit the stands of participating Dutch companies.

Enjoy this international trade fair and I hope to speak to you in Essen.

Dr. Ir. Albert ten Busschen
Chairman of the Board, VKCN
