Made for the Skies
With the number of airline passengers growing worldwide – thanks to lower airfares and stronger economic conditions – new aircraft manufacturers are beginning to challenge existing players. One thing they all have in common: the need for high performance solutions, such as cables for faster digital networks, more power delivery, advanced in-flight entertainment, electronic enclosures and advanced technical fabrics for aircraft pilots.

Finding a Sustainable Solution
According to scientists, more than two billion people globally are overweight, facing increased health risks. If a change of diet isn't successful, a sleeve gastrectomy might be the solution. As a manufacturer of medical products that minimize the risk of weight-loss surgery, Gore will hold two symposia at the 2017 International Federation for the Surgery of Obesity (IFSO) and Metabolic Disorders congress in London, which more than 3,000 surgeons from 88 countries will attend.

Urban gardening and composting are growing trends in big cities around the world.

And GORE® Cover technology plays an essential part in the process.
