IVIS 2009 is intended to bring together between 200 and 300 delegates over two days at the Royal Institution. In 2007 there were 165 international attendees, and the 2009 London event aims to build on that achievement.

The use of vacuum insulation has been established in the refrigeration and logistics sectors, with packaging, vehicles, and appliances. The construction sector is also emerging as a major market where the ability to achieve very low U values at minimum thicknesses is increasingly acknowledged as a valuable attribute.
