JEC COMPOSITES MAGAZINE - Issue #44 - October 2008 - Special Asia - 3
EDITORIAL 45th year President and CEO/Publisher: Frédérique Mutel mutel@jeccomposites.com JEC ASIA: composites ready for action The composite sector is very lively, with global annual growth at 6%. Specifically in Asia Pacific, it experienced a double-digit growth. That huge region accounts for 36% of the global composite market, and its share could climb to 46% by 2015. Opportunities are numerous for composite players in all segments of the value chain. To facilitate exchanges, JEC Group created JEC Asia, an international platform to provide studies on local markets, plus meetings, conferences, and an extensive trade show in two halls. On October 22-24, 2008, in Singapore, the composite industry will give users from all the different markets a glimpse of its most advanced technologies. While applications in transportation, building & construction and energy will take centre stage this year, all sectors will have the opportunity to outline the specific reasons why they are adopting composites more and more. At JEC Asia, innovation accompanies every stage of the value chain. Upstream, raw materials producers are putting out new generations of thermoset and thermoplastic resins and increasingly high-performance fibres, as well as plant-based biocomposites for matrices, like starch or castor oil, or for reinforcement, like hemp, flax, abaca, reed, or bamboo. JEC Asia 2008 will also demonstrate the industrialization of processes, showcasing the latest technological advances in prepregs, compounds, fabrics, SMC, GMT, BMC, injection, RTM, RIM, pultrusion, laminating, centrifugal casting, and filament winding, along with the new releases from equipment and software manufacturers. Two examples among many are the development of RTM, especially in aeronautics, and infusion moulding, which is spreading in the marine sector. Building and construction is booming all the way from the Middle East to Asia/Pacific Rim. The composite solutions presented at the JEC Asia show are numerous and for all types of specifications, which is what the region calls for! The environment is very much on board, either directly with energysource products like wind turbines and solar panels, or indirectly with lightweight structures like aircraft and vehicles that consume less and lower energy costs. Thanks to the relationships we have built up over the past decade with the region’s composite and industrial associations, we have been able to get them closely involved. The event also has the support of the scientific community: Stanford University (USA), Hanyang University (Korea), and in Singapore, NUS (National University of Singapore), A*STAR (Institute of Manufacturing Technology), EDB (Economic Development Board), BCA (Building and Construction Authority), STB (Singapore Tourism Board) and LTA (Land Transport Authority). JEC Asia is a group undertaking. All together, we are determined to provide the best programme for the composite industry and for the user visitors coming from Asia and the world over.
