Visitor registration is open for Composites Future 2026, a new event dedicated to composite materials taking place in Fiera Milano-Rho, Italy, on 9-12 June.
This exhibition and conference is a collaboration between EuCIA member Assocompositi – the Italian association for composite materials, Xylexpo – International biennial exhibition of wood and furniture industry technology, and Plast – International Exhibition for the Industry of Plastics and Rubber. Registration is free until 29th May and also grants access to the Xylexpo and Plast exhibitions, which are running concurrently.
During Composites Future, Assocompositi is hosting the Composites Future Academy in Hall 18. This three-day free educational project is designed to showcase the value and potential of composite materials across various industrial sectors. From design and industrial production to advanced quality control, the programme guides participants through the entire value chain, offering an opportunity to enhance skills and tackle high-performance composite challenges with innovative tools.
