The 3rd edition of AMI’s Polymers in
Flooring US conference will take place on September 17-18, 2019 at the Westin Buckhead Atlanta in Atlanta, GA.
Polymer flooring is in the midst of a transition and is experiencing a
wave of investment that shows no signs of abating. It also has uses across a
diverse range of applications from residential, commercial and industrial to
healthcare, sports and leisure. Innovative high-quality products enabled by new
materials and process developments are changing customer perceptions and
opening up new high-value markets.
The conference provides a unique forum bringing the polymer flooring industry
together to debate technical and market trends, whilst networking with key
stakeholders and experts from the industry.

The scope of the conference will cover the full range of polymers used in
flooring systems, including vinyl, polyolefin, polyurethane, acrylic and epoxy

Unfortunately AMI cannot take responsibility for such problems. We recommend that you ensure that your travel plans leave you enough spare time to cope with weather delays or industrial action and that your travel insurance policy will recompense you for any financial loss that you suffer as a result of being unable to travel for other reasons. Remember that if you cannot attend an event then you can always send a colleague in your place at no charge.
It is entirely possible that you may need a valid visa to enter the USA when AMI is holding an event there. We recommend that at the time of booking you check the visa requirements. Please find below a link to the US State Department's visa requirements web pages:

We are unable to give refunds to delegates who cannot attend conferences because they fail the visa requirements of the country.
AMI always does its utmost to avoid changes in advertised conference programs. However it is a fact of life that from time to time amendments have to be made as a result of changes to speakers’ circumstances or corporate change. Remember that you can always check with our conference staff on the latest status of any conference program.
