The past years have reshaped industries that rely on听high鈥憄erformance nonwovens. Whether in composites, construction, interiors, or听energy storage, manufacturers face an evolving reality: volatile energy prices,听geopolitical instability, supply chain disruptions, decarbonization pressure,听stricter regulatory frameworks, and - across all markets - the need for materials that simply hold up over time.

JEC World: Conversations Driven by Composite听Performance and Predictability

These shifting conditions shaped our discussions with听composite manufacturers at JEC World 2026 in Paris, France - and the response听we received there was incredibly encouraging. We saw strong interest from听customers, engaged in excellent technical conversations, and had the chance to听exchange ideas openly about upcoming challenges and opportunities. The level of听dialogue at our booth showed just how much momentum there is in the composites听market right now.

听

At JEC, the focus听wasn鈥檛听only on navigating pressure听-听it was on exploring new ways to enhance process stability, resin compatibility, surface quality, and overall performance. Composite producers听operate听with tight tolerances and ambitious sustainability targets, making material reliability more important than ever. Our Evalith庐 fiberglass nonwovens are engineered to support exactly this:听

• Smooth processability听
• High dimensional stability听
• Reliable听wetout听
• Uniform resin flow and consistent laminate structure听

They鈥檙e听also compatible with a broad range of resin systems such as polyester, vinyl ester, epoxy, polypropylene, PVC and more听-听giving manufacturers flexibility at a time when resin choices and processing methods continue to diversify.听

As听Anne Schaefer, Portfolio Manager Glass Mat & Specialties, puts it:听

鈥淭he pressure on composite producers is enormous - tight tolerances and growing sustainability demands. Our goal is to deliver materials that behave predictably and help our customers keep their production stable, day after听day.鈥�

Beyond Trade Shows: Supporting Customers All Year Long听

While trade shows are important touchpoints, our collaboration with customers goes far beyond these events. Throughout the year, we support them through:听

• Local production in Europe and North America听for higher supply security听
• Technical service teams听that understand听real-world听processing challenges听
• Tailor-made solutions听optimized听for individual production lines听
• R&D resources, including the听JM Technical Center in Littleton, for testing, development, and innovation听
• Regular onsite support, ensuring consistent performance and smoother operations听

This ongoing partnership approach has become even more valuable in a global landscape marked by uncertainty and rapid change.听

Durability as a Requirement,听Not听a Feature听

Expectations for longevity continue to rise听-听whether听it鈥檚听structural performance in buildings, the durability of roofing membranes, the dimensional stability of flooring systems, surface quality in interior products, or cycle life in battery applications.听JM鈥檚 glass nonwovens are designed with this reality in mind.听

In insulation and construction materials, our fiberglass nonwovens provide:听

• Mechanical strength听
• Thermal stability听
• Reliable surface coverage听
• Flame retardancy听

They support听mineral wool insulation听-听听where听dimensional stability and strong bonding are听critical听听-听听and听foam insulation boards, where stability during lamination, consistent foam structure, and good adhesion define听end product听performance.

听

In energy storage, our materials help minimize contamination, improve electrolyte retention, and stabilize active material听-听听central听to听long-lasting听battery performance.听

Across our portfolio听-听听wetlaid,听airlaid, spunbond,听needlepunched, coated, hybrid, reinforced,听doublelayer听-听we provide the flexibility needed to tailor:听

• Area weight听
• Reinforcement听
• Surface finish听
• Fire protection听
• Permeability听

鈥�ensuring manufacturers can find exactly the right fit for their specific process.听

听

Meeting Sustainability and Compliance Expectations听

Regulatory landscapes are tightening fast, especially in Europe, where traceability, lower VOC emissions, and minimized environmental impact are becoming mandatory. JM actively supports manufacturers in navigating this shift through:听

• Biobased and听formaldehyde free听binders听
• Recycled glass and PET content听
• Transparent LCAs听

As听Krishnaraj Srinivasan, Product Manager Polyester Spunbond, explains:听

鈥淐ustomers want reassurance that they can meet sustainability targets without taking performance risks. Our job is to make that an easy choice, not a compromise.鈥�

Techtextil: A Broader Stage for a Broader Portfolio听

While JEC World centers on composites, Techtextil widens the conversation to include construction, building interiors, filtration, battery components, and many other applications. The industries are diverse听-听but their goals are familiar:听

• Better performance听
• Higher efficiency听
• Greater reliability听
• Secure supply听
• Measurable sustainability听

Techtextil shows that innovation听doesn鈥檛听always come from breakthroughs听-听often it comes from consistent, dependable inputs that enable better products and more stable processes.听

From lightweight structural composites to insulation boards, ceiling tiles, filtration products, battery separators, and many more applications, our nonwoven solutions are engineered with a clear purpose: to support our customers through complexity and change.听

听

If听you鈥檇听like to explore how our materials can support your specific application,听we鈥檇听be happy to meet you at听Techtextil 2026 in Frankfurt, Germany, April 21鈥�24 -听you鈥檒l听find us in Hall 12.1 at Booth C29.听

And the message we bring to Techtextil captures this perfectly:听

鈥淓ngineered to Perform. Proven to Last. Durable Nonwoven Solutions Backed by People who Understand Your Challenges.鈥澨�

We鈥檙e听proud to meet customers at a time when durability, reliability, and partnership matter more than ever听-听and even more proud to bring a portfolio shaped not only by technology, but by people deeply committed to helping our customers thrive.
