This fifth Eurasphalt & Eurobitume Congress (E&E 2012) already has a strong line-up of speakers and delegates, with the programme being fine-tuned to meet expectations. Over 800 delegates are expected to attend the event, which will provide detailed presentations on the latest developments in bitumen and asphalt technology. Particular emphasis is being placed on meeting future challenges of tomorrow.

Around 275 technical papers will feature, grouped together as appropriate under the session headings. The congress is held every four years and the events are well respected around the world, as evidenced by the international nature of delegates and speakers alike.
