Assocompositi has currently 50 industrial members and is actively involved in increasing the information flow between industry, research centres and universities at both national and international level. A second important action is to promote the participation of Italian industries to international projects, such as European research projects or the development of new international standards and to participate to national and international events, such as exhibitions and/or conferences.

Assocompositi issues technical publications on composites applications. So far we have issued the volume named “COKIT”, focused on FRP use in buildings, a DVD series on composites technologies for nautical applications and guidelines on glassfiber pipes’ joints. The Association also participates to many Italian normative work groups.
