Slideshow: Scenes From JEC Americas & IFAI

For the first time ever, JEC Americas converged on the city of Boston November 7 to November 9, hosting a massive materials show in conjunction with IFAI (Industrial Fabrics Association International).

From major cutting tools to something as simple as a spool of foam, there was something for everyone. If you are into materials -- composites or otherwise -- this was the place to see or be seen.
