Three Saertex Projects Enter the Finals of JEC INNOVATION AWARD 2018

SAERTEX has entered the JEC INNOVATION AWARD competition with three projects – and all of them have landed on the shortlist for this year’s prize. The award ceremony takes place in Paris on March 07, 2018. In the “Rail Vehicle” category, SAERTEX, together with the company SMT and Alan Harper, entered a project which involved the renovation of the floor panels in 66 trains of the Deutsche Bahn ICE fleet through the installation of fireproof SAERTEX LEO materials. In the “Marine” category, SAERTEX LEO impressed with the design of a complete composite sundeck for a 110-meter long river cruise vessel which was constructed in partnership with the Meyer/Neptun shipyard in Papenburg. In the category “Construction and Infrastructure”, the use of Carbon SAERfix for concrete pipe rehabilitation, in association with Spanish customer GRUPO NAVEC, proved itself convincingly. In this case, SAERTEX and HENKEL are the co-innovators of the project under the leadership of GRUPO NAVEC.
