Our involvement

We are excited to announce that Gexcon will be attending the 17th EFCE International Symposium on Loss Prevention and Safety Promotion in Process Industries which will be held from 5-8 June 2022 in Vienna House Diplomat, Prague, Czech Republic.

If you are taking part in the forum, you will have the opportunity to listen to our three presentations and find us at booth #3 where you can discover what our advanced engineering solutions can do to support you in promoting safety and reducing the risk of incidents in process industries. We hope you can stop by, connect and exchange information and knowledge with us.

About the event

Since its first edition in 1974 in Delft, occupational and process safety professionals, researchers, scientists, academics and practitioners have been meeting on a triennial basis at the EFCE Loss Prevention Symposia somewhere in Europe, under the supervision of the EFCE Working Party on Loss Prevention and Safety Promotion in the Process Industries. 

In this period, the Loss Prevention Symposia series has been successful in stimulating and sharing both theoretical and practical knowledge among the Loss Prevention community and considerable progress has been achieved in the field of safety in the chemical and process industries worldwide.
