As one of the largest trade show in the composites industry, JEC World brings together professionals from application sectors, experts from the scientific and academic world, associations and media from more than 112 countries.

Back in March, the company announced plans to postpone the 2020 show until May as the coronavirus pandemic was starting to spread rapidly through Europe causing travel widespread travel restrictions and containment measures.

The next JEC World trade show is scheduled to take place on March 9-11, 2021 after the company organised a survey to poll its exhibitors. The company said that all participants and partners will be contacted very soon in order to best manage the consequences of this decision.

Increased travel restrictions from authorities both from exhibiting and visiting companies will drastically reduce attendance to the show while the latest developments of the coronavirus have significantly increased the concerns of participating companies about the health of their employees.

The composites show based in Paris brings together the whole industry value chain, as well as professionals from application sectors, experts from the scientific and academic world, associations and media from more than 112 countries.

We trust though that given the current situation, which is continuously evolving, everyone involved will understand our common and industry decision.

The decision will require industry professionals, exhibitors, partners, engineers, researchers and buyers to re-schedule their attendance, which will have a significant impact on their organisations, as it will for the JEC Group.

CanPlastics shared a short video on a visit to the JEC inaugural composites show held in Boston.

Over three hundred exhibiting companies (65 percent from North America and 35 percent from Europe and Asia), and 6,698 entries with 4,159 professional visitors from fifty three countries and thirty six states (onsite registration), attended, clearly confirming the interest of the international composites industry in the Americas market. These good results are all the more positive since the show suffered from many last minute attendance cancellations due to the storm that hit New England on the second day.
