Eco-conscious product promotion
Legislation, climate conservation, and customer preference are driving businesses to be conscious of environmental factors. However, with many options on the market, it can be challenging to find the right path. Reducing energy consumption, adopting bio-content, exploring end-of-life options, recycling, material reduction... the list is endless.

Why Stuttgart?
Stuttgart is a major manufacturing hub in Europe, particularly for the automotive industry, which makes it the perfect fit for Foam Expo Europe. This city has built a reputation as the 'Car Capital' as it is home to some major automobile giants. OEMs such as Daimler (Mercedes Benz) and Porsche both have headquarters and manufacturing sites here, as well as their famous museums 'Mercedes-Benz Museum' and 'Porsche Museum'.
Stuttgart is also known for its strong high-tech industry, its television tower, and robust transportation links. Technical foam, industrial bonding and thermal management play an important role here, facilitating many industries with material developments, manufacturing processes, and innovations.
"Stuttgart is the perfect location because people can fly in, drive in and come by train. It has very good accessibility from various countries in Europe. It couldn’t be better.”
