From the 3rd to the 5th of May 2022, the team at DEXET Technologies attended JEC WORLD 2022, the biggest composites show on the planet hosted in Paris. An action-packed three days saw hundreds of companies showcasing their contributions to the composites industry for everyone to see. Whether it was creating new and improved materials, developing state-of-the-art software or releasing and selling groundbreaking products, the immense exhibition hall had it all. This was the first installment of JEC WORLD that DEXET Technologies attended, and it was nothing short of a resounding success. Having set up the exhibition booth that advertised DEXET’s role within the industry, Francesco, Stefano, Enrique and Federico spent every available hour inside those three days talking to a multitude of fellow exhibitors and buyers alike. Representatives from companies all around the world came to DEXET’s booth to learn about the team’s engineering capabilities, and likewise DEXET gained a greater understanding of the many opportunities that lie within the industry.

Not only was the event perfect for meeting industry leaders and creating interesting connections, it was also a momentous milestone for DEXET (in partnership with Revolve Mobility) thanks to the unveiling of the Revolve Air folding wheelchair. The world’s first folding wheelchair that can fit inside an aircraft’s overhead luggage compartment in its entirety was shown for the first time at JEC WORLD 2022. The prototype chair was presented to a panel of judges and was voted a Top 10 invention, attracting more than its fair share of attention with dozens of companies wanting to learn more about the chair and sparking wonderful discussions. Among the many other highlights of the week, the team was completely taken aback by the quantity and quality of new composite materials being developed around the globe, boasting a wealth of improvements including sustainability, strength, weight savings and cost reductions. With every new material the team discovered, more and more ideas flowed about how they could be put to good use and how DEXET might be able to implement them in innovative ways.

Overall, JEC WORLD 2022 was the perfect opportunity to get the DEXET name out into the industry, and the team made sure that word got out. Events like these are invaluable to young companies, and the buzz around DEXET has certainly started. Congratulations to JEC for putting on such a fabulous event, and a huge thank you to all of the attendees who made it as great as it was.
