#198 Metstrade Panel of JEC with Circularity in Composites: From Vision to Action – Join the Conversation!

What does true circularity in composites look like? How do we
move from ambition to implementation? This exclusive LinkedIn
Live-on-Tape session, hosted by Alexander Guillet (JEC), brings
together a powerhouse panel of innovators and industry leaders
who are shaping the future of sustainable composites.

Meet the Panelists:

* Marina Palumbo Cardella – European Boating Industry (EBI):
Advocating for a greener marine sector and driving the roadmap
for end-of-life boats.

* Raphael Pleynet – EUCIA: The architect behind the European
Circular Composites Alliance (ECCA), uniting 170+ members to
accelerate circularity.

* Guillaume Perben – Composite Recycling: Scaling up technologies
to recover glass and carbon fibers and close the loop.

* Fabio Bignolini – nlcomp by Northern Light: Pioneering
thermoplastic composites for next-gen sailing boats.

* Norbert Sedlacek – Innovation Yachts: A legend in ocean racing,
now leading the charge for fully recyclable yacht design.

Europe is on the brink of a paradigm shift. With the Circular
Economy Act expected in 2026, the pressure is on to rethink
design, production, and end-of-life strategies for composites.
From marine to wind energy, from startups to global OEMs, the
message is clear: sustainability is no longer optional—it’s the
new competitive edge.

What You’ll Learn:

* How regulatory frameworks like the Circular Economy Act will
reshape the industry.
* Why collaboration across the entire value chain is
critical.
* Real-world examples of recycling technologies and thermoplastic
innovations.
* How alliances like ECCA are creating momentum for systemic
change.

This isn’t just another panel—it’s a front-row seat to the future
of composites. Hear candid insights, bold visions, and practical
steps from those who are making it happen. If you care about
sustainability, innovation, and the business opportunities they
unlock, you can’t afford to miss this.

* Join us at JEC World 2026 in Paris and visit the Circularity
Village to see these innovations up close.
* Sign the ECCA Declaration at and
become part of Europe’s most dynamic circularity movement.
* Press “Participate” now to secure your spot for this livestream
and be part of the conversation that will define the next decade
of composites.

The race toward circularity has started. Will you be in the
lead—or left behind?
