A platform, to exchange ideas

The European Mortar Summit 2025 is both a technical and business conference, accompanied by an exhibition by the mortar manufactures and suppliers. The conference and exhibition will take place over one and a half days and will be framed by a joint gala dinner on the first day. The organisers are excited to welcome around 200 experts from the mortar, plaster and insulation industries as well as their suppliers from all over Europe. The lecture program will be enriched by an exhibition where more than 20 companies are expected to proudly showcase their innovative portfolios. As a premiere, there will be “Innovation Workshops” in which exhibiting companies can present their field of activity in more detail and enter into discussions with the participants. The overarching theme of the entire summit is the idea of networking, enabling the various sectors to enter into a mutual exchange and find sustainable solutions together. For exhibitors the organizers still offer an early bird prize. More information about the exhibition stands as well as the participation conditions is available at: www.mortarsummit.eu

Bas Huysmans, EMO President and CEO Saint-Gobain Weber Benelux, emphasizes the importance and the main purpose of the European Mortar Summit as follows: “The construction industry is currently experiencing difficult times, in some countries on an unprecedented scale. Irrespective of this, however, important changes, challenges and tasks in the areas of standardisation, digitalisation and sustainability are currently on the agenda! This is particularly the case when it comes to the implementation of political objectives and new legislation, such as the new Construction Products Regulation. After a break of almost ten years, the timing therefore seems almost perfect to convene the European mortar industry and its supplier partner industries once again for a summit. We are therefore happy to announce the 2025 European Mortar Summit. A platform, to exchange ideas, obtain expert first-hand information and recognise opportunities. We are pleased to be able to attract high-ranking and competent speakers who can provide us with the latest information on the status of the various processes, as well as an outlook on what we can expect economically and politically. We therefore look forward to seeing and meeting colleagues, friends, partners and experts at the European Mortar Summit 2025.”

On the  occasion of the upcoming 4th European Mortar Summit 2025, the ZKG CEMENT LIME GYPSUM had the opportunty to ask some questions to Antonio Caballero González.

All in all, the European mortar industry, in particular the technical experts responsible for implementing the CPR, product developers and the strategic management. 

On the one hand, there are the Innovation Workshops during the exhibition, where exhibitors can present their innovations and highlights in separate slots.

We are also looking forward to welcome CEOs from various mortar manufacturers to the event and as selected participants in a panel discussion. Their participation and engagement in the discussions with their insight and market expertise, will be beneficial to both sides: speakers and audience.

A further highlight is the informal networking dinner at the Deichgraf in Düsseldorf.

At present, there are no specific plans. We are focusing making it a successful event and looking forward to assessing the audience feedback through a survey afterwards. But certainly EMO and the industry are interested in repeating such or similar events on a regular basis.
