Conference 2024

13–14 March 2024 17–18 April 2024

Cologne (Germany) Cologne (Germany)
Hybrid Event Hybrid Event
cellulose-fibres.eu co2-chemistry.eu

The unique conference focused on cellulose fibres – in textiles,
hygiene products and packaging. 220 participants from 27
countries joined the past conference. The conference will
present the most successful solutions based on cellulose fibres
that are currently available on the market.
The conference will cover the entire value chain, from
lignocellulose, chemical pulp, cellulose fibres such as rayon,
viscose, modal or lyocell and new developments to a wide range
of applications: textiles from renewable fibres, non-wovens such
as wet wipes as well as new areas like composites, hygiene,
packaging or nanocellulose in the food industry. The conference
will offer deep insights into the promising future of cellulose
fibres, which perfectly fits the current trends of circular economy,
recycling and sustainable carbon cycles.
One of the internationally leading events on Carbon Capture
and Utilisation (CCU) and Power-to-X showcasing the newest
and most important developments in this fast-growing field.
245 participants from 30 countries joined the past conference.
New and leading players demonstrate novel and improved
technologies covering the complete value chain for the use of CO2
as a renewable carbon feedstock. Main topics of the conference
include innovation, strategy and policy in CCU, carbon capture
technologies, green hydrogen production, Power-to-X for fuels
(transportation and aviation), CO2-based chemicals, materials and
polymers, mineralisation and advanced technologies, research for
CCU, and artificial photosynthesis.

CONFERENCE 2024 Conference 2024

11–13 June 2024 20–21 November 2024

Siegburg/Cologne (Germany) Cologne (Germany)
Hybrid Event Hybrid Event
renewable-materials.eu advanced-recycling.eu

The brightest stars of renewable materials meet at the number
one meeting point for global leaders in industry, academia
and policy. 465 participants from 32 countries joined the past
conference.
The unique concept of presenting all renewable material solutions
at one event hits the mark: bio-based, CO2-based and recycled are
the only alternatives to fossil-based chemicals and materials.
In June 2024, more than 500 delegates and 30 premium exhibitors
are expected in Siegburg, near Cologne (Germany). Centrally
located in Western Germany and only a few hours from France,
Belgium and the Netherlands, Siegburg is easy to reach for
international participants.
RENEWABLE
MATERIAL
This international conference offers the ultimate guide to
cutting-edge recycling solutions. More than 290 participants
from 25 countries joined the previous conference last year.
With the upcoming recycling quotas set by the EU, as well as
quotas for mandatory recycled content for specific products,
advanced recycling reaches far beyond the plastic packaging
sector. In consequence, estimations foresee 55 % of renewable
carbon to come from recycling until 2050.
Continuing the successful journey of advanced recycling
technologies, this year’s program of the conference will provide
well-balanced insights into the versatile world of advanced
recycling solutions. A broad spectrum of presentations will cover
different material waste streams from plastics to composites and
textiles.
