Three years ago, June 2016, the Italian Group of Fracture (IGF) organized in Catania the ECF21, the 21 st European Conference on Fracture. The event was undoubtedly a great success with more than seven hundred participants. For that event, the proceedings were published in an issue of Procedia Engineering , as Procedia Structural Integrity , the open access product that publishes conference proceedings organized by the European Structural Integrity Society (ESIS), by its Technical Committees or by the National Groups that are affiliated with ESIS, was starting its first publications in that year. Now, after three years, IGF organizes again its biennial conference in Catania, as the 25th International Conference on Fracture and Structural Integrity . In these three years, Procedia Structural Integrity published 14 issues up to now and, thanks to the quality of the published papers and to the hard work of a great academic community, it obtained different indexations (Google Scholar, Scopus and ISI-WoS). Now Procedia Structural Integrity is able to support the events organized by the fracture and structural integrity community, offering a high quality publication platform for the proceedings. The event in Catania in 2019 was a great success, with about 140 presentations and this issue publishes more than one hundred papers offering a view of the research activities in the fracture and structural integrity fields both in Italy and in many different countries, with the 70 % of the participants coming from other countries like Russia, Germany, France, Greece, Morocco, Ukraine etc. During the conference, René de Borst, Reinhard Pippan and Sergio Reale were awarded with the IGF Honorary memberships. In addition, two new awards were established: “Manson-Coffin IGF medal” and “Paolo Lazzarin IGF Medal”.
