It's K time!

For more than 40 years, K has been and still is the biggest international trade fair for plastics and rubber, and takes place once every three years.    The leading raw material producers, processing companies and machinery manufacturers offer an overview of the latest technical developments, procedures and techniques, of current construction methods and future trends.
The outstanding importance of K for the industry arises from the excellence and ongoing development of its product range, and the constantly growing number of more than 3,100 exhibitors from over 50 nations.  The fact that more than 242,000 trade visitors from 100 countries expressed their full satisfaction at the last staging of K in 2007 guarantees the future success for all those involved in the industry. 

The plastics industry is one of the most innovative segments of the world economy and plastics are seen as the material of the 21st century. Major advances in products and processes – plastics are key.
