The final day of Metstrade doesn't mark the end of the week. It marks the beginning of the next conversation.

On Friday, industry leaders, innovators, organisers, sponsors and technical experts will gather at the Yacht Racing Forum, the international meeting place for the business of yacht racing.

It's where ideas are shared, partnerships are formed and the future of the sport is discussed by the people helping shape it every day.

We'd like to wish Bernard Schopher and the entire Yacht Racing Forum team the very best with the final preparations. We can't wait to see the discussions, insights and collaborations that emerge from this year's event.

What does a truly circular future for boatbuilding look like?

At Metstrade 2026, visitors to the Construction Materials Zone can discover how Chomarat and its industry partners are helping turn composite waste into new materials for boat production, creating a more circular approach to marine manufacturing. The initiative is already being used in production boats and has been recognised as Sustainability Project of the Year at the Boat Builder Awards.

Explore the latest developments in sustainable composites, recycling technologies, coatings and advanced construction materials in Hall 11.

What happens when a boat reaches the end of its life?

Increasingly, the answer isn't disposal, it's a second chance. From refurbished yachts in France to innovative recycling initiatives across Europe, the marine industry is finding new ways to keep valuable materials in use and reduce waste.

As circularity gains momentum, old hulls are being transformed into modern vessels, while recyclable materials are being recovered and reintroduced into the supply chain. It's a reminder that sustainability isn't always about building something new. Sometimes it's about unlocking the value that already exists♻️
