On November 22 and 23, 2023, the German Foamed Plastics and Polyurethanes Association (FSK) will hold its 22nd International Specialist Conference. The major topics are: Fire – No Thanks, PU in Electromobility, and Chemical Recycling and Cyber Security.

  • Follow the progress the EU project CIRCULAR FOAM for a closed-loop circular ecosystem to the end-of-life of PU rigid foam has already made in its first 20 months.
  • Discover how computer simulation sets the right course for product properties and recycling already in the development process.
  • Find out why cyber security is a very central task with an average of 1,168 hacker attacks per week worldwide.

The list of speakers is impressive with big players such as BASF SE, Continental Automotive Technologies GmbH, Covestro Deutschland AG, Dow Deutschland Anlagengesellschaft mbH, Getzner Werkstoffe GmbH, Hinzsch Schaumkunststoffe GmbH & Co. KG and REMONDIS SE & Co. KG. A top-class panel discussion and the ceremony for the presentation of the Innovation Award Foamed Plastics and Polyurethanes 2023 are part of the program.

The event will take place on the premises of the Baykomm Communication Center at Covestro Deutschland AG in Leverkusen. Exclusive insights into the Covestro Technical Center in Leverkusen will be the crowning glory on the second day of the event.
