Compounding World Expo 2018: EuMBC gives industry presentation
29.05.2018
The event at Messe Essen in Germany on 27-28 June 2018 will not only host around 150 exhibitors but also a series of training seminars, business debates and technical presentations throughout the two days.
The full speaker line-ups have been revealed for the two free-to-attend conference theatres at the Compounding World Expo. The event is being organised by AMI and Compounding World magazine.
The opening keynote address on the first day of the exhibition will be given by Andrew Reynolds, a founder of AMI and director of Advance Bidco, the owner of AMI. He will set the scene with a paper analysing global trends in plastics compounding markets. On the following day, the opening keynote will be delivered by Chris Smith, the editor of Compounding World. He will highlight five compounding innovations to watch.
Business debates with several EuMBC members
Across the two days of the conference there will be four business debates addressing the future of technical compounds, masterbatch, PVC compounds, and polyolefin compounds. These will feature influential business leaders from some of the world’s biggest compounders and masterbatch makers, such as A. Schulman, Ampacet, Clariant, and PolyOne - all members of EuMBC.
There will also be six practical training seminars covering topics such as: specifying and scaling up twin-screw extruders; computer modelling of the compounding process; optimising screw configurations; complying with REACH 2018 chemicals legislation; and understanding the psychology of colour.
EuMBC presents the REACH horizon scanning tool
On the second day of the conference, on 28 June at 12.30 in conference theatre two, EuMBC will present its "REACH horizon scanning tool" which allows members to assess regulatory threats to raw material availability in the most efficient way.
