Composite Materials and Sustainability

FESI is proud to be a co-sponsor of an online Institution of Mechanical Engineers Seminar on Composite Materials and Sustainability that will be taking place on July 19, 2022. Sustainability in their use phase is often a key driver for the selection of composites over traditional materials. Composite structures deliver a long service life combined with low maintenance requirements, and lightweight composites result in lower energy consumption throughout a product’s life.

Join us online to hear from engineers and practitioners across multiple industries are addressing and solving the issue of composite material sustainability, covering the full life cycle from design stage to recycling, including:

• Ford share new technologies achieving net-zero sustainability for mass production
• Knowledge Transfer Network will dispel the myths around the recycling of composite materials
• Network Rail outline how composites are used in the railway industry and the potential for increased uses
• HEAD share best practice of sustainable product design, with examples from the sports industry
• B&M Longworth explain recent reclamation successes for circular composites
• Plus, hear presentations from Lineat Composites, Polestar, Furrer and Frey AG, Torpey and University of Southampton
