Pultrusion leader to exhibit at JEC World 2026 in Paris

Exel Composites will exhibit at the leading international composites show JEC World 2026, taking place 10-12 March 2026, in Paris at the Nord Villepinte Exhibition Centre (Hall 5, stand E132). The company will showcase its expertise in continuous composite manufacturing, including advanced pultrusion and pull-winding technologies for high-volume, performance-critical applications.

JEC World serves as a key meeting point for manufacturers, engineers, designers, and decision-makers from across the entire composites value chain. At the show, Exel will present advanced composite solutions supported by its strong research and development expertise, serving a wide range of industries globally, including wind power transportation, buildings and infrastructure, electrical and power transmission, unmanned aerial vehicles, and more.

Exel is also showcasing its expertise in composite conductor cores, the central structural element of overhead power conductors, highlighting how advanced composites provide a stronger, lighter and more efficient alternative to traditional steel cores.

Important opportunity
Francesco Ierullo, vice president of sales and marketing at Exel Composites, said: “JEC World offers an important opportunity for us to meet both new and existing customers, discuss ongoing projects, and explore future collaboration opportunities. Our team will be available throughout the event to share insights into our technologies and application expertise, and we are inviting customers and industry peers to an informal cocktail gathering at our stand on 11 March from 5pm.”

In addition to its exhibition presence, Exel Composites will contribute to the event’s technical programme. Kim Sjödahl, senior vice president, technology and sustainability at Exel, will participate in a panel discussion titled Composites in Construction: Durability, Challenges, and Building the Impossible. The session will take place on Tuesday, 10 March from 2-3pm at Agora 6, as part of the official JEC World 2026 agenda.

Exel Composites was also a finalist in the JEC Innovation Awards in the Aerospace (Parts) category as a partner to its customer Flying Whales. The collaboration highlights how advanced composite solutions enable lighter, stronger, and more efficient structures for next-generation aerospace applications, with Exel’s pull-wound carbon-fibre tubes playing a key structural role in this innovative airship project.
