ESTC is pleased to invite its members from across the synthetic turf value chain to the inaugural ESTC Symposium, taking place in Brussels on 12–13 October 2026.
Building on the success of the ESTC Technical Day, the event has evolved into a broader and more comprehensive symposium format, reflecting the rapidly changing landscape of our industry. The ESTC Symposium will provide a platform to exchange knowledge, discuss emerging challenges, and explore opportunities shaping the future of synthetic turf.
Over two days, participants will gain valuable insights into key topics including:
- Sustainability and circularity initiatives
- Environmental Product Declarations (EPDs) and industry best practices
- Technical developments and standards updates
- European and international regulatory trends
- Recycling and end-of-life management solutions
- Industry classification and Extended Producer Responsibility (EPR)
- Updates from ESTC Interest Groups and Task Forces
The programme will feature presentations from leading experts representing industry associations, regulatory bodies, technical committees, and sustainability organisations. Attendees will also benefit from dedicated networking opportunities, including an evening networking event designed to encourgae collaboration and strengthen connections across the sector.
Join us in Brussels this October for two days of knowledge sharing, networking, and industry collaboration.
We look forward to welcoming you to the first edition of the ESTC Symposium.
