The material most strongly represented in the FSK is polyurethane (PUR) or PUR moulded parts.
The largest specialist group within the FSK is dedicated to this material and deals with a wide range of aspects relating to polyurethane.
This specialist group covers all topics related to PUR, such as technical developments, legislation, recycling and many more. In meetings the group tries to provide answers and questions concerning processing, application possibilities of the material and the recycling of polyurethane (PUR) among others. During visits to companies and production facilities, various processing issues are exchanged and discussed.
The specialist group PUR regularly organises workshops and seminars and also hosts the Specialist Conference PUR, which takes place every two years.
The FSK Specialist Group PUR Moulded Parts is the professional organisation of manufacturers, suppliers and processors of flexible, semi-rigid and rigid PUR moulded foams in Germany and other European countries. This group is also linked with other associations and European organisations.
