ECWM conferences provide a forum for research organisations and companies, as well as stakeholders, architects, and project managers to learn about the latest developments in wood modification, to discuss them with renowned experts and to build networks in an informal and friendly atmosphere.
All types of wood modification are covered- This includes thermal, chemical or impregnation modification, as well as related technologies, such as microwave, plasma and enzymatic modification. The programme will also include testing methods and standards, environmental issues, quality control and aspects of commercialisation and markets.
The conference programme is arranged by the scientific committee.
ECWM conferences were established in 2003 (Ghent), and in the same year, the European TMT Workshops were started in Dresden, organised by IHD. Both conferences have been successful, but there have always been some overlaps. Now, as part of ECWM12, the TMT Workshop series will be integrated into ECWM.
Detailed information about venue, programme, submission deadlines, registrations etc. can be found at the conference website www.ecwm12.eu.
