What’s more, the JEC World Connect digital platform will also provide an online presence.
The industry- leading international exhibition regularly brings together the entire value chain of the composites industry and is eagerly awaited this year since it was cancelled in 2020 and then held as an online-only event in 2021.
As an exhibitor, KARL MAYER Technische Textilien is also looking forward to exchanging ideas with its customers at stand Q 64 in Hall 5. Presentation highlights will include solutions for composites made of natural fibres.
“We have been focusing on this topic for about two years. Since in-person exhibitions were cancelled in the wake of the coronavirus pandemic last year, we’re only just getting an opportunity to show our samples and example products now.

We are looking forward to premiering our new developments,” said Hagen Lotzmann, Sales Manager at KARL MAYER Technische Textilien. In Paris, he and his team will present a snowboard made from a non-crimp fabric produced using flax fibres on the COP MAX 4 multiaxial warp knitting machine.
As a renewable raw material, flax is a sustainable alternative to glass and carbon. While glass and carbon fibres are firmly established in the composites sector thanks to their performance properties, they can only be manufactured using a great deal of raw materials and energy.
KARL MAYER Technische Textilien will also be exhibiting reinforcement solutions made from tried-and-tested high-performance fibres at JEC World 2022, including high-quality carbon non-crimp fabrics manufactured on a COP MAX 5 for aircraft and automotive construction, and warp-knitted fabrics with weft insertion from the WEFTTRONIC® II G, which is currently setting trends with its products – particularly in the construction industry.
