The Bitumen Waterproofing conference
IMPORTANT ANNOUNCEMENT
In light of the current challenging economic environment and the uncertainties it brings across the value chain, we have taken the difficult decision to postpone the IMPERVIUS Conference to 2027.
We were very much looking forward to welcoming the industry together in Baveno this June and had developed an insightful programme in collaboration with EDANA members. The chosen venue and format were designed to foster meaningful networking, exchange, and knowledge sharing across the sector.
However, we believe it is in the best interest of the industry to reschedule the conference in order to ensure the right conditions for strong participation and engagement. This postponement will allow us to deliver the quality event the community expects and deserves.
The new dates will be announced in due course. We sincerely thank you for your understanding and continued support, and we look forward to bringing the community together again in 2027.
IMPERVIUS™ is a conference by the industry for the industry, specially aimed at professionals in the waterproofing bituminous membranes sectors
The waterproofing bituminous membranes sector totalled in 2021 an estimated production of 752 million sqm in Western Europe. To support this growing market and demand, EDANA introduced a brand new conference in 2019 focussing on the production of waterproofing bituminous membranes.
This 2-day conference is designed to offer great insights, best practices and information on market trends, regulatory and technical topics, environmental aspects as circular economy, as well as potential issues that could affect the whole supply chain.
