Utech
Singapore, July 22, 2024 /AgilityPR-AsiaNet/
Focus on sustainability and market opportunities in South East Asia
Organisers of the inaugural UTECH South East Asia polyurethanes conference and exhibition, taking place at Marina Bay Sands, Singapore from 13-14 November 2024, have announced a comprehensive speaker programme for the event’s free-to-attend conference. Sustainability and market opportunities in the polyurethanes sector in South East Asia are among the conference’s key themes. Visitor registration for the free-to-attend two-day conference and exhibition is now open at: www.utechseasia.com
In additional to a full two-day programme of leading polyurethanes industry speakers, the conference will also feature panel discussions looking at: the roadmap for sustainable polyurethane production in the Middle East; the real potential for the South East Asian polyurethane market; and sustainable, energy-efficient polyurethane solutions within construction in the region.
Leading industry figures already confirmed to speak include:
• Damini Dabholkar, Markets Editor, ICIS: Opportunities and challenges: Insights into the Asian polyurethane industry
• Jose Naraval, Material and Technology Engineer-Foams Material & Innovations, IKEA Purchasing Services Poland: Circular foam for the many

“We are delighted to be bringing the long-established UTECH polyurethanes trade show and conference experience to SouthEast Asia,” said Matt Barber, Global Events Director at event organiser Crain Communications. “Celebrating its 40th anniversary, our recent UTECH Europe event attracted record interest with more than 220 exhibitors and 10,366 visitors from 93 countries and we look forward to bringing the same successful formula to Singapore this November.”
As one of the most effective thermal insulation materials, polyurethane offers huge unrealised potential to reduce the energy used to heat and cool buildings. Once seen as harder to recycle than other polymer-based materials, commercially viable innovations are emerging for the mechanical and chemical recycling of polyurethanes. With rising CO2 emissions being the fundamental driver of global warming, many companies are using CO2 to produce new raw materials for polyurethane. Bio-based polyols derived from natural raw materials including soya beans, caster beans and cashew nuts are becoming increasing available. In the automotive sector, innovative polyurethane materials are helping manufacturers to enhance vehicle sustainability and playing a key role in EV battery development. These innovations and more can be discovered at the UTECH Europe exhibition and conference.
Leading global and regional companies and organisations who have already confirmed their attendance as exhibitors include: Pearl Polyurethane Systems, Momentive, Kuraray, SD Korea, Asia Polyurethane Manufacturing, Saan Global and Zhejiang Wansheng.
