International Plastic Pipe Conference Extends Deadline for Papers
The organizers of the International Plastic Pipe Conference and Exhibition have announced a two-week extension of the deadline for the submission of abstracts to Nov. 15, 2017.
“We have already received some major proposals for presentations and are particularly interested to receive case reference experience from major water, gas, sewer and telecom utility companies,” Zoran Davidovski, Conference Co-Chair/Chair of the Technical Program, said. “Plastic pipe technology is constantly evolving to meet an ever wider range of new applications. New applications particularly in the industrial sector are therefore of similar key interest.”
According to Davidovski, speakers and participants are typically drawn from utility companies, pipe manufacturers, raw material suppliers, consultants, specifiers and technical institutes.
The 2018 International Plastic Pipe Conference and Exhibition will take place at the Red Rock Resort in Las Vegas, Nevada on Sept. 24 – 26.
