The K show has been a firm date in Hennecke's trade fair calendar for decades, offering an excellent opportunity to demonstrate our technological leadership within the industry. At this year's „K“, we are aiming to be successful in several respects because following the motto „Fascination PUR“, our trade fair appearance will be packed with innovative topics. For example, product innovations such as the compact high-pressure metering machine HIGHLINE for an extemely broad range of applications (s. page 08) and the new JFLEX slabstock line enabling the continuous production of slabstock in a very small space (s. page 04) will be presented. In the field of process technology, Hennecke is also well-prepared, especially when it comes to the forward-looking issue of lightweight construction. The current focus is on functional automotive components with specific properties that again extend the boundaries of the possible (s. page 11 and 14). Moreover, there is some important news about the Hennecke Group: With the Hennecke Profiliertechnik GmbH as the latest member of the corporate group, we have taken a major step to further advance our overall systems competence in the field of steel sandwich panels (s. page 17). As you can see, we are working in a focused manner to be able to offer you optimal solutions in the different application areas of polyurethane processing. Therefore, I am pleased to invite you to experience Hennecke's way of „Fascination PUR“, either at the K show in Düsseldorf or by reading the latest issue of our customer journal INNOVATIONS. I hope you will enjoy the magazine and find some interesting news about the fascinating world of Hennecke PUR.
