The “Internationales Holzbau-Forum“ (International Timber Construction Forum) in Garmisch-Partenkirchen has established itself as the leading meeting place for timber construction in Europe. Around 1,600 participants attended the conference last year, in order to obtain information concerning the current state of research and technology during the presentations and exhibitions. The Fraunhofer WKI will be represented through its own booth, in order to present new developments from the Institute's research.

This year, the largest conference in Europe on bio-based composite materials will focus on the main topics Wood-Plastic Composites, Biocomposites in Automotive, Injection Moulding, Biocomposites in 3D Printing, Structural Applications and Raw materials for Biocomposites. More than 250 participants and 30 exhibitors mainly from industries are expected. The Fraunhofer WKI and the Fraunhofer UMSICHT will present their research results on a joint stand (Stand 3).
