Highlights

Testimonials

“The region is in the process of developing many new things and so such events are an encouragement for people to come and visit, and look for new products and technologies. The event had good participation from nearby countries like Turkey, Egypt, Oman and Qatar.”

Batul Bharmal

AGM - Sales (Export), Crest Speciality Resins
“Companies like us don’t have a platform where we can market ourselves, so we usually go to our clients and get business. But there are still many clients who don’t know about us. In such cases, exhibitions like this play a huge role in connecting with potential clients.”

Manoj Raipancholia

Managing Director, Modest Marketing
“It's always good to have such an event. You can have a break from work and meet your colleagues from the industry, meet your competitors, customers, your principal suppliers and get to know the new products and technologies in the market.”

Fahad Badroos

Distribution Sales Manager, Construction
“It was great to see strong representation from the Asia-Pacific region, with key customers from India and China. Composites are emerging as a vital alternative to traditional materials like metal, offering benefits such as lightweight properties and flame retardance. Raising awareness about these advantages is crucial, and events like this play a significant role in promoting our products. Overall, I had a productive experience connecting with suppliers and collaborating with customers. Looking forward to the next edition!”

Mr. Biju Krishnankutty

Regional Technical Manager, Scott Bader
“I'm very happy to participate here in MECAM and this is our second edition. And we're looking forward to having a very good response from MECAM and we hope that it will continue. As manufacturers of polyester and unsaturated polyester resins, we are collaborating with INEOS to introduce new products and expand our market share in KSA. MECAM provides the ideal platform to connect with key players in the composites industry.”

Mohammed Ashfaq Mohsin

Program Manager, Saudi Industrial Resins Limited
“We are here in MECAM to market our product and raise awareness about our company. Our main target markets are the Middle East and Africa. At MECAM, we had the opportunity to meet competitors, customers, traders, and new contacts from these regions, which will help us build a strong brand presence.”

Ahmed Azuka

CEO, AFIFI Industrial Group
“Events like MECAM are crucial for expanding our business, portfolio, and customer base. After a small booth last year, we've significantly expanded this year and plan to showcase our full product range in an even larger setup next year”

Vimal Balan

Sales Manager, Al Khowahir Chemicals
“Our main objective in participating in the MECAM event is to attract customers from neighboring regions beyond the Middle East. This event provides an opportunity to connect with customers, which would otherwise be challenging for us to reach and do business with.”

Manoj Raipancholia

Managing Director, Modest Marketing
“The best aspect of the MECAM event is the presence of numerous brands focused on sustainable products, which is crucial in light of climate change. Platforms like MECAM bring industry professionals together under one roof, fostering connections, networking, and business opportunities. The biggest takeaway for me was seeing how quickly the industry is adapting to environmental changes, as well as how well-organized the event is in terms of segmenting different sectors. I will definitely be attending next year.”

Visitor sharing insights on the 2nd edition of the Middle East Composites and Advanced Materials Expo 2024.
“The main reason I visit the MECAM Expo is to connect with industry peers, while also discovering new suppliers and potential customers. Many of these initial connections often develop into friendships, and, in some cases, even business partnerships. The biggest takeaway from this event is not only finding new customers and suppliers but also witnessing exciting developments in fields we are not currently involved in. This opens up potential opportunities for future expansion.”

“I’ve met several manufacturers here, and the standout for me has been the carbon fiber manufacturers. I believe events like this should happen more often, as they provide a great opportunity for suppliers and manufacturers to connect. It's an excellent meet-and-greet that really helps enhance business and networking. I’ve already exchanged a few contacts and shared our values, which could lead to future business opportunities. Looking forward to attending next year.”

“The MECAM event has been an invaluable platform for our Thermoplastic Composites team at the Technology Innovation Institute, showcasing our work on lightweight sustainable composites and hydrogen pressure vessels. As part of our efforts to support the UAE government's initiatives, we aim to revolutionize industries like construction, automotive, and aerospace with bio-based solutions that reduce environmental impact. Events like MECAM provide a great opportunity to connect with the local supply chain, generate business contacts, and expand awareness of our innovative technologies. This year's event demonstrated significant growth compared to last year, and we look forward to future opportunities to engage with the evolving industry landscape.”

Dr. Vaibhav Furnish

Senior researcher,Technology Innovation Institute
“We are the technology partners for Digital Solutions from Dassault Systèmes, France. I’m here to connect with companies in composite manufacturing and material supply. The MECAM event has provided me with a fantastic platform to interact with leaders in this field. This event is incredibly important for the Middle East, as it offers exposure to firms in the region as well as global investors. It allows everyone to showcase their capabilities and explore potential partnerships. The biggest takeaway for me has been identifying the right partners and building a strong network. It’s been a great experience, and I’m definitely looking forward to next year!”
