Both events have experienced a significant increase in demand for exhibition space, as machine and plant manufacturers, raw material producers, and plastic and rubber processors from around the world register to present their innovations in these two promising markets.

The presentations of the exhibitors will be supplemented for the first time by the special show “Meeting Point Raw Materials” in Hall 1, which will showcase innovative developments relating to the production and use of raw materials.
