UTECH Middle East a great success

Evonik showcased its innovative product portfolio at the second edition of UTECH Middle East in Dubai. TEGO® RISE, a software solution in the Next Gen Solutions category, was also showcased during the three-day exhibition.

In September, the time had come again. Following the launch of UTECH, an exhibition and conference for the global polyurethanes industry, in the Middle East last year, the second edition took place at the World Trade Center in Dubai, United Arab Emirates. The inaugural event last year welcomed over 4,000 visitors from more than 70 countries. This year, even more exhibitors were present to showcase their portfolio. One of the exhibitors was once again the team of experts from Evonik.

Evonik is a leading global supplier of essential additives for the production of a wide range of polyurethane foams. Its innovative product portfolio contributes to the outstanding performance of polyurethane foams, and in some cases makes it possible in the first place. In the production of flexible polyurethane foams, our additives enhance the comfort properties of mattresses, upholstered furniture and car seats.

These properties also impressed visitors to the trade show. Evonik's booth was abuzz with visitors and their wide-ranging set of questions.
