Thai show attracts 181 delegates

The JEC Group and the Thai Composites Association (TCA) say that their recent event welcomed 181 delegates from 21 countries, 46% of whom were OEMs and composites end-users.

The Composites in Construction and Architecture show, which took place in Bangkok in July, focused on a growing market for the composites industry: construction and architecture.

The 19 speakers from 13 countries presented the trends, innovations and opportunities for composites materials in the industry and presenters included Duangrit Bunnag, owner and founder of Duangrit Bunnag Architect Limited, talking about new architectural typology.

‘Considering the outcomes of this event, we at JEC Group, believe that composite materials have great opportunities in the Construction Industry,’ said Christian Strassburger, JEC group events director for Asia.
