85% of the European composites market. This is how representative the European Composites Industry Association (EuCIA) is of
the market as defined by the AVK study in 2023.
The arrival of a new member, the Polish Cluster of Composite Technologies (PKTK expands EuCIA’s existing network of national composites industry associations and industry-specific sector groups.
“We are delighted to welcome the Polish Cluster of Composite Technologies to EuCIA,” says Roberto Frassine, president of EuCIA. “We initiated the discussion at JEC World in Paris, and we look forward to sharing knowledge and best practices with PKTK and its members to support the sustainable growth of the composites industry in Europe. The addition of PKTK to our membership is another important step in our mission of becoming the unified voice of the entire European composites value chain”.
“Internationalisation is one of our strategic goals. By joining EuCIA, we increase the visibility of the cluster, strengthen our advocacy role, and extend network and new collaboration’s opportunities for our members on European markets”, states Andrzej Czulak, leader of PKTK.
Established in 2017, PKTK is a platform supporting cooperation between organisations active in the field of composites technologies, including universities, R&D, industry, business…. The cluster currently has more than 120 members. Sustainability and about the circularity of composite materials are one of the areas the cluster wishes to develop through EuCIA.
