The plastics and rubber industry will be presenting its complete product and service spectrum and the entire diversity of its innovative applications at K 2016, the industry’s international flagship fair, which will be held from 19 to 26 October in Düsseldorf. 3,285 exhibitors from every continent will be unveiling their latest developments for every industrial segment. With a net display area of 173,966 square metres, all 19 halls at the Düsseldorf trade fair venue are completely booked out.

Werner Matthias Dornscheidt, President and CEO of Messe Düsseldorf, is looking forward to the eight days of this event. “The largest plastics production site on earth will be open for business in Düsseldorf tomorrow, and exhibitors will be showing the world what they've been planning and developing for many months. And once again it's absolutely clear that nowhere in this world is it possible to experience the complete spectrum of raw material, processing and application technology so completely as at K in Düsseldorf. In addition to plastic and rubber processing companies around the world, the innovations presented here are also of major interest to experts in the automotive and aviation industry, packaging, electrical engineering, electronics and communications, the building industry and medical technology. We expect over 200,000 trade visitors from all over the world to take advantage again of the opportunities K 2016 provides.”
