The SLTC rubber conference will take place on Bogota, Colombia, on the 12th – 14th November
This conference is a key event for the rubber industry in Latin America. Speakers from Latin America, Europe, and Asia will present on topics including rubber science, tyre recycling, sustainability, material innovation, and market trends. The full list of speakers will be confirmed and posted soon on the official website.
The presentations cover topics such as: pyrolysis and recovery of waste, new developments in compounds and formulations, quality control, international regulations, circular economy, among others. The detailed schedule will be updated on the www.jornadascaucho.com website
The target audience consists of professionals and technicians in the rubber sector, end-of-life tyre recyclers, researchers, university students and professors, machinery manufacturers, raw material suppliers, distributors, and representatives from both public and private institutions. Attendees include participants from Latin America, as well as invited guests from Europe and North America.
Approximately 450 to 500 attendees are expected. In the last edition of the Conference in Lima, Peru, 594 people participated, including speakers, sponsors and company delegates in all events such as the XVII Latin American Conference on Rubber Technology, the III Latin American Conference on Tire Recycling and the associated sponsors exhibition.
Speaking for SLTC, Emanuel Bertalot said; “For this edition, we hope to continue increasing the interest in rubber recycling in Latin American countries by researchers, public administrations and companies in the region and abroad.
“ In its recent history of the Recycling Days, which have quickly become the preferred meeting of the sector, the SLTC has managed to capitalise on the value that each venue has contributed to rubber recycling to make a better call on each occasion, for this and after the successes in Mexico and Peru, we are convinced that Colombia will see even more interest, with a lot to offer to the attending delegates, but also be receptive to everything that its speakers and sponsoring companies add to continue growing and thus continue to be a key event in the tyre recycling ecosystem for the region.”

In addition to the lectures and presentations, the event will feature a specialised trade show, networking activities, technical discussion panels and exchange spaces for specific sectors such as retreading and the use of ELT powder in asphalt mixes. As well as social exchange activities such as the camaraderie dinner and the wine tasting.
There will also be a retreading forum. However, that is still in the development stages and news of that panel will be announced as SLTC confirms speakers and presentations.
