ABOUT US

 

Europe's meeting place for technical foam professionals

Foam Expo Europe is the largest event for manufacturers and buyers of technical foam products and technologies on the continent. At the show, you can expect to see a variety of foam products and raw materials used in the manufacture of foam and related products, such as moulded, rigid, and flexible foams as well as manufacturing machinery and foam service providers. What’s special about Foam Expo Europe is that we are recognised as a main event in people’s diaries to meet raw material suppliers, chemical producers, manufacturers, converters, machinery suppliers, and end users.

 
 

The community comes first

Trend cycles move so fast that technical foam innovators must keep up with them and differentiate their offerings simultaneously. Therefore, Foam Expo Europe was established in 2018 to provide the foam community with a forum to share ideas and develop solutions and services for the industry face-to-face. The show brings together companies from all stages in the value chain under one roof, from OEMs, to buyers, it is their dedicated meeting place to network and get business done.

How it started

Foam Expo Europe first ran in 2018 after a successful first edition of Foam Expo North America in 2017. The popularity of the show in North America enabled us to satisfy a similar demand in Europe. This opened opportunities for buyers and manufacturers of technical foam in Europe to network with the international supply chain. There are differences in the two markets, but the overall value proposition of the show is the same in both regions. Therefore, Foam Expo Europe was born. In 2021, we launched Adhesives & Bonding Expo Europe and in 2023, Thermal Management Expo Europe as co-located shows to attract more of the same highly focused and relevant audience.
