K , the world’s most relevant trade fair for the plastics and rubber industry, is available from 19 to 26 October 2022 in Düsseldorf .

The ranges on show at K 2022 include the segments machinery and equipment, raw materials and auxiliaries as well as semi-finished products, technical components and reinforced plastic products. “K in Düsseldorf is not only the performance barometer for the industry and its global marketplace for innovations, but also provides orientation, sustainable economic impetus and forward-looking trends as well as concrete approaches to solutions,” says Erhard Wienkamp, Managing Director at Messe Düsseldorf. October 2022 will be the perfect timing for the No. 1 trade fair because the effects of the global pandemic have also hit many enterprises from the plastics and rubber sector as well as their customer industries. Therefore, there will be an enormous demand for personal exchange and re-orientation on a global scale in the international plastics and rubber industry.

K in Düsseldorf also always addresses the current challenges of our day and age and specifically of your industry. This is why such subjects as sustainability, resource savings, circular economy and digitalisation, which gathered momentum at K 2019, will also feature among the “hot tickets” of the trade fair at both the exhibitors’ stands and side events. Worth a special mention here is the Special Show entitled “Plastics shape the future” as well as the Science Campus as a forum for science and research .
