One of the central aims of the EPTA is to support the growth of the composites industry by maximizing external communication efforts. In line with this overarching goal, the EPTA has had its own stand at various trade fairs for a number of years. Recently, EPTA had its own stand at the International Trade Fair… Continue reading EPTA at Shows

PIE Polymer Price Reports-September 2023 Bucking the sometimes steep, persistently upward trend for principal feedstock styrene seen since August, resin prices continued pointing downward in September.On average, the decline was modest, but for larger orders rebates could easily reach triple-digit dimensions. Once again, the divergent directions reflected the soft demand. Prices for glass fibre products… Continue reading PIE Polymer Price Reports – September 2023

Pultruded composites contribute to a more sustainable future for construction Increasing energy and resource efficiency in the construction sector will be key to the EU’s ambition of achieving climate neutrality by 2050. By enabling the manufacture of strong, durable and lightweight products, composite materials can help the construction sector improve its environmental sustainability, as well… Continue reading EPTA Industry Briefing: Pultruded composites contribute to a more sustainable future for construction
