The 60th edition of JEC World 2025 marked a new milestone as the largest JEC World ever, attracting over 45,000 professional visits from 94 countries, 29 per cent coming from France, with 27 regional and national pavilions and hosting more than 1,350 exhibitors showcasing cutting-edge innovations, and a very strong increase in business relationships as part of the JEC business meetings programme.
After three days of intense business interactions, expertise sharing, and knowledge exchange, JEC World 2025 reaffirmed the pivotal role of the composites industry in building a more sustainable future. Under the unifying theme ‘Pushing the Limits’, the event showcased the extraordinary versatility and innovation of composite materials that continue to redefine lightweighting, performance, and design possibilities for an increasing number of applications.
With more than 600 new products and innovations launched during this year’s show, JEC World remains the best place to introduce new developments to the global market. The JEC Composites Innovation Awards recognised 11 collaborative achievements, reflecting the industry’s dedication to providing new solutions for all application sectors of composites.
For its 8th edition, the JEC Composites Startup Booster competition, now firmly established as the leading competition for start-ups in the advanced materials sector, rewarded 3 companies from Netherlands, Spain and the US for their impressive market potential.
The Live Demo zone was particularly visible on the show floor and well attended over the three days. This feature, highlighting automated and robotised processes, including large-scale additive manufacturing technologies, together with more than 100 machines available on exhibitors’ booths, made the JEC World experience unique. 59 per cent of the exhibition space has already been booked for the next edition, which will take place from March 10 to 12, 2026.
