November is the month of modern packaging and weighing technology.
Sustainable industry in the packaging industry, bioplastics and biocomposites as an alternative to conventional plastics and digitization of processes in the packaging sector - these was the main topics that was be addressed during the last edition of the Expopacking Fair and Packaging Technology. In the same time, the WAGexpo Weighing and Dosing Salon was be held, which was be accompanied by a conference related to legal regulations on conformity assessment systems.
On September 13, 2019, the Center of Polymer and Carbon Materials of the Polish Academy of Sciences participated in the "15th Science Day". This year's Science Day was organized in 12C Park at ul. Sienkiewicza 43, and the organizers were the city of Zabrze and „Queen Louise” Adit of Museum of Coal Mining in Zabrze. During the outdoor event, at which 44 exhibitors, schools, universities, scientific institutes and cultural institutions presented their offers and accomplishments. This year's Science Day was combined with access to the Military Technology Park and visiting the „Queen Louise” Adit.
On 08.06.2019, CMPW PAN employees attended in a regular charity picnic organized by Marco, a Gliwice-based company. The goal of the picnic was to raise funds for the "Tęcza" Occupational Therapy Workshops organized by the Różyczka Foundation in Gliwice.
We are pleased to inform that M.Sc. Eng.

In short
The Center belongs to category A of scientific facilities in Poland. It was established on January 1, 2007 as a result of a merger of the Center of Polymer Chemistry of PAN in Zabrze and the Institute of Carbochemistry of PAN in Gliwice – two centers of the Polish Academy of Sciences which, for many years, had been conducting systematic work on the production and properties of macromolecular polymer and carbon materials.
