TOPIC AERAS

metal replacement

Increasingly competitive, plastics can also replace metals: light weight, simpler processes, integration of components and greater design freedom are the trump cards in the hands of engineering polymers.

high performances

The performance of the most advanced engineering plastics includes high mechanical, chemical and atmospheric resistance, for long-lasting results.

lightweight

Plastic materials and composites are getting increasingly lighter, making it possible to reduce energy and material consumption, especially in the transport sector.

surfaces

Quality and variety make polymer surfaces an indispensable element of contemporary design, in technical and aesthetic applications.

sustainability

Environmental protection, lower emissions and less waste: these are just some of the reasons why modern industry has to be committed to sustainability. The latest generation of engineering polymers are biodegradable and recyclable, both characteristics that help to protect our ecosystem.

e-plastics

Electric and self-driving cars for a mobility model abreast of times and more respectful of the environment. Smart Plastics 2024 will highlight the contribution of polymers to this evolution. A new challenge worth taking up.
