SPE International Polyolefins Conference
This conference is among one of the world’s largest polyolefins conferences. The Society of Plastics Engineers South Texas Section has been organizing and running this premier conference since 1975. At SPE our mission is to provide and promote scientific and engineering knowledge related to plastics around the world. This conference funds our Education Philanthropy Programs. With these programs, we support local higher education for future plastic industry professionals. Our initiatives include individual student scholarships, direct support to SPE University chapters and endowments among others.
