IPPS 2015
7th & 8th October 2015
Venue Cymru, Llandudno, North Wales, UK
The BioComposites Centre is pleased to invite you to the International Panel Products Symposium (IPPS) 2015. Since the symposium began in 1997 it has built a reputation for being one of the leading technical conferences in wood based panels and novel panel
products.
IPPS attracts a wide audience from across the globe, both academic
and industrial. Join us at IPPS 2015 to network, get up to date and
find inspiration from discussing current activity and trends, legislation and the changing market as well as a glimpse into the future.
This year there will be presentations in a session dedicated to COST
Action FP1303—Performance of Bio-based Building Materials.
We are now seeking abstracts for quality technical papers
following the IPPS and COST FP1303 key themes. Abstracts
can be up to 600 words in length and must be received by 31
March 2015. Successful applicants will present their papers orally in
English. All papers will be included in the conference proceedings if
received before 1 July 2015.
