Visitor preregistration opens on 15 January for PLAST 2018 taking place at FieraMilano in Rho-Pero from Tuesday 29 May to Friday 1 June 2018.
By preregistering (on the visitors page of plastonline.org), operators intending to visit the exhibition can request two free admission tickets to PLAST 2018 and to each of the other exhibitions in The Innovation Alliance (IPACK-IMA, MEAT-TECH, PRINT4ALL, INTRALOGISTICA ITALIA).
Thanks to the collaboration of ICE-Italian Trade Agency, delegations of reputed buyers are being invited from some thirty countries. An intense B2B meeting programme with PLAST 2018 exhibitors is being organized for these operators, who represent companies in various segments of the plastics and rubber processing industry, from extrusion and blow-moulding to injection moulding, thermoforming and recycling.
With five months to go before the exhibition, more than eight hundred direct exhibitors have confirmed their participation in PLAST 2018, which will occupy fifty thousand square metres. Three years ago, at the same relative point in time, there were approximately seven hundred eighty exhibitors and just over forty-six thousand square metres of exhibition space.
The upcoming edition of PLAST will also feature three satellite fairs dedicated to three industries of excellence in the sector: RUBBER (staged for the third time, devoted to the whole rubber industry), 3D PLAST (which returns for the 3D printing and related technologies) and PLAST-MAT (the new show focused on innovative plastics solutions).
