The CEO Roundtable will extend invitations to 50 business leaders within the polyurethane industry for a collective discourse on the challenges and opportunities arising from the sustainable development of polyurethane. Discussions will encompass legal and regulatory frameworks concerning carbon reduction and the circular economy, industry certifications (including TFS in the chemical sector, ecobadis, ISCC quality balance, carbon labeling, etc.), and the multifaceted challenges confronting the polyurethane sector. The event aims to collectively explore innovative resolutions, exchange scholarly insights, disseminate best practices, and articulate strategic perspectives. This collaborative endeavor seeks to broaden the intellectual horizons of participants, enabling them to adeptly navigate opportunities and collectively contribute to shaping a promising future for the polyurethane industry.
Invitation
The Polyurethane Technology International Forum (PTIF) is an international conference aimed at promoting sustainable development and technological advancement of global polyurethane industry. Co-sponsored by Shanghai Polyurethane Industry Association, University of Shanghai for Science and Technology and Suntower, the forum brought together industry leaders, scientists and entrepreneurs from more than 30 countries and regions to discuss the latest research results, technological breakthroughs and market trends in the field of polyurethanes.
Themed "green, energy efficiency and sustainability", the 2025 PTIF focuses on the application of PU materials in new energy vehicle, bio-based polyurethane, polyurethane composites, photovoltaics, wind power, rail transit, electric power, medical, LNG and aerospace sectors, and promoting the sustainable development of the PU industry through innovative technologies. The topics of the forum include, but are not limited to, polyurethane markets, policies, laws and regulations, industry standards, sustainability, reducing dependence on petrochemicals, green and energy-efficient building solutions, and applications of cutting-edge polyurethane technologies, processes, specialty materials, functional additives and advanced equipment. During the forum, a CEO panel discussion, a buyers delegation meeting and an exhibition on commercialization of universities’ scientific and technological achievements will be held to promote international cooperation and commercialization of scientific and technological achievements.
As a platform that facilitates academic exchanges and promotes international cooperation and growth of the global PU industry, PTIF provides participants with an opportunity to interact with the most influential professionals in the polyurethane industry and creates a blueprint for the future of the industry.
