COMPOSITES IN FOCUS
JEC World 2025 brought together the global composites sector
Bringing you the latest composite advances across the transportation sector, straight from the show fl oor of JEC World 2025
U
nder the umbrella of ‘pushing the limits’, JEC World 2025 brought together the global composites sector to
showcase the latest innovations that are redefi ning lightweighting, performance and design possibilities across the transport manufacturing industry. The 60th edition of the show
was the largest to date, attracting over 45,000 professionals from 94 countries. More than 1,350 exhibitors displayed their cutting-edge products and technology advances throughout the event, while thought leaders and experts discussed a range of topics key to composite innovation, such as circular economy principles. In total, more than 600 new
products were launched during JEC World 2025, giving a positive indication to the pace of development within the composites industry.
INNOVATION IN FOCUS This year’s JEC Composites Innovation Awards recognised 11 collaborative achievements across the composites spectrum, which the organiser says refl ects the industry’s dedication to providing new solutions for all application sectors. The competition is open to any company, university or R&D centre with a compelling collaborative innovation or concept to showcase.
Running through some of the Metal powder infused with graphene
winners within the transportation fi eld, Airbus took fi rst place in the Aerospace – Parts category for its Multifunctional Fuselage Demonstrator (MFFD), made out of thermoplastic composite materials covering novel design and build concepts and delivering lower CO2 emissions, dustless joining and material and process time reduction. Also in the aerospace category, Loop Technology’s FibreLINE technology was awarded in the Process category for its high- rate manufacturing of composite structures, while Jaguar Land Rover took the Automotive and Road Transportation category for its Sustainably Optimised Composite Automotive (SOCA) project for decarbonising the manufacturing of composite automotive parts.
