Showcasing Advanced Reinforcement and Sustainable Adhesion Technologies at IRC2026 AICHI
NSG Group is pleased to announce its exhibition at the IRC2026 AICHI Rubber & Elastomer Technology Exhibition, which will take place over four days from Tuesday 3 November to Friday 6 November 2026 at the Aichi International Exhibition Centre (Aichi Sky Expo) in Tokoname City, Aichi Prefecture.
IRC2026 AICHI (International Rubber Conference 2026 Aichi) is one of the world's largest international conferences and technology exhibitions dedicated to the rubber and elastomer industry. Researchers, engineers, material suppliers, tire manufacturers, and rubber product manufacturers from around the globe will gather to present and discuss the latest technological developments and research achievements.
NSG Group's glass cord products offer high strength, high modules, and excellent dimensional stability, making them suitable for a wide range of applications, including timing belts, CVT belts, and tires. Through proprietary adhesion technologies, NSG Group achieves outstanding bonding performance with rubber and resin materials, contributing to improved durability and extended product life.
In addition to glass fiber-based solutions, NSG Group has developed reinforcement cord materials utilizing carbon fibers, aramid fibers, and other advanced materials. These products are being promoted as alternatives to steel cords for applications requiring reduced weight, improved efficiency, and enhanced durability, particularly in electric vehicles (EVs) and next-generation mobility systems.
Under the theme "Creating Reinforcement for a Sustainable Future.", NSG Group's exhibition booth will showcase these high-performance reinforcement materials alongside its latest environmentally friendly adhesion technologies, including RFL-free, VOC-free, and halogen-free solutions, which contribute to reducing environmental impact.
Visitors are invited to explore NSG Group's innovative reinforcement technologies that support next-generation mobility and a more sustainable society. NSG Group looks forward to welcoming attendees to its booth at IRC2026 AICHI.
