K 2019 to provide new technology as a motor for innovation

Feb 11, 2019

K 2019, the international flagship fair for the plastics and rubber industry, will address key issues of circular economy, resource conservation and digitisation.

Traditionally hosted alongside K 2019, the special show under the known title of “Plastics shape the Future”, will illustrate how plastics can have a sustainable impact on our future, developments emerging and which visions have the potential to become a reality.

The special show is a project that was initiated by the German plastics industry under the aegis of PlasticsEurope Deutschland and Messe Düsseldorf.

A total of 3,000 international exhibitors and over 200,000 visitors are expected to attend K 2019, in Düsseldorf between 16th- 23rd October 2019.

The Science Campus and special show programmes have been aligned to address topics that will dominate the global development of the polymer market in the coming years.

The trade show will also address the question of how to recruit new, young professionals for the industry, science and training.
