It's Free To Walk The Expo Floor
The expo is free to attend, and the conference will focus on a diverse array of topics including hose safety, material and product selection, testing and standards, new technology and more. Interested in sharing your knowledge with the community? Consider presenting at the event; you could join a panel of experts, present a paper, run a discussion-based workshop or demonstrate a new technology to an audience of your peers.
Don’t Wait — Submit Your Abstract Today!
To submit an abstract to present at the event, you need to act fast — submit your paper to Conference Coordinator, Jody Hewitt, at j.hewitt@kci-world.com.
The event Steering Committee, which is headed by Fred Schweighardt, National Projects Leader and Welding Expert for Airgas, an Air Liquide company, is comprised of industry leaders from manufacturing, distributing and end user companies that work with industrial and hydraulic hoses and accessories. The committee will review the submitted abstracts and decide which presentations will be featured at the Hose + Coupling World Conference.
Gain A Better Understanding Of Hose Safety And Reliability
NAHAD's own Hose Safety Institute will run the Hose Assemblies Essentials Course, which will cover a basic introduction to hose assemblies and best practices using real-life examples and case studies.
This course is ideal for end users and purchasers of hose assemblies, sales representatives looking to expand their understanding of hose safety and reliability, safety managers looking to improve operations, new professionals in the hose assembly industry without a technical or engineering background, and anyone looking to gain a better understanding of the importance of hose assemblies and their impact on operational effectiveness. In particular, you should consider this course if you are involved in:
- Supply chain

- Maintenance
- Operations
- Health, safety and environment
- Product management
- Equipment operation
