The Karl Mayer Group, a pioneering force in the composites industry, is set to showcase its commitment to sustainability and cost-efficiency at JEC World 2024, taking place from March 5-7. Renowned for its presence at this premier trade fair, the company will exhibit alongside Karl Mayer Technical Textiles and its Stoll Business Unit in Hall 5, Stand K32 at the Parc des Expositions in Paris Nord Villepinte.
A key highlight of the exhibition will be the spotlight on non-crimp fabrics and tapes crafted from bio-based yarn materials, catering to the increasing demand for sustainable solutions within the composites sector. Addressing the pressing concerns of the climate crisis and escalating energy costs, Karl Mayer Technical Textiles is poised to unveil innovative applications, including an alpine ski incorporating hemp fiber fabrics.
This innovative product, a result of subsidized initiatives, utilizes hemp tapes from Fuse GmbH, processed into non-crimp fabrics using Karl Mayer's cutting-edge Cop Max 5 multiaxial warp knitting machine. Leveraging its application technology center and composite expertise, the company stands ready to assist customers in project implementation and processing trials.
Moreover, the trade fair serves as a platform to reinforce Karl Mayer's standing as a premier development partner and specialized machinery manufacturer in the composites realm. With a focus on innovation, the company will unveil advancements in multiaxial machine technology for glass roving composite production, alongside Stoll Business Unit's emphasis on thermoplastic materials.
The exhibition will feature knit-to-shape components boasting visually striking textile exteriors and reinforced inner surfaces, eliminating the need for additional molding. This innovative approach not only reduces waste but also optimizes material utilization.
Eagerly anticipating engaging discussions and fostering new collaborations, the Karl Mayer Group invites attendees to explore their booth, promising a showcase of ingenuity and forward-thinking solutions.
