JEC President & CEO

The growth prospects for the US composite
industry include an expected annual growth
rate of 5% over the next five years. Many
factors are contributing to this trend, among
which the increasing amount of information
delivered to end-users by composite companies and their industry trade organizations.
The largest international industry organization, JEC Group (250,000 professionals),
makes a significant contribution all year long,
and specifically during the JEC Americas
Show 2015. With its richness and diversity, JEC Americas is an extraordinary tool
for learning, exchanging, and expanding
business.

Renewed focus on innovation

This year, the JEC Americas awards
programme offers a varied, carefully vetted
selection of worthy projects. The awards
cover the whole value chain, from raw
materials to software. Applicative categories include automotive, aeronautics and
consumer goods. The same trends show
up here: more efficient, lower-cost mass
production with accelerated output rates as
the main goals. JEC Americas 2015 is the
stage where the composite industry can best
demonstrate how these new materials are
pushing the limits of innovation in every
industry. Excellence through technology
and innovation will also be the focus of this
