Welcome to 5th International WPC Symposium
in Biarritz
In continuation of our repeating success in four previous conference events in Bordeaux, FCBA is pleased to invite you to the 5th edition of the International Symposium on Wood Fibre Polymer Composites which will take place on September 26-27, 2011, in Biarritz, about 200 km to the south of Bordeaux in France.
The 2011 conference event will focus on opportunities for innovative wood based composites used in Building and Furniture sectors contributing to the Green Growth.
In addition, new information will be divulged on bio resources based materials and bio plastics used as raw materials, on product performances, policy issues standardization methods and the environmental issues related to wood-based materials.
The wood based materials are a part of growing green economy.
We have selected Biarritz whose reputation extends far beyond the borders of France for its infrastructure and accommodation capacity perfectly suited to this kind of event. Indeed, the seaside resort has the necessary assets to allow attendants and those accompanying them to discover this outstanding area in which a warm welcome is a lifestyle.
In order to facilitate the necessary arrangements for your reservation and trips, we wished to put an internet website at your disposal as early as possible. It will progressively provide reservation form and enriched information about the scientific conference.
We hope to have you amongst our guests to celebrate this event whose Scientific and Organizing Committees strive to make this moment unforgettable and show you a French way of life in an area where sea and mountains coexist beautifully.
