Celebrating their 75th birthday, Interplas will return to Birmingham in September 2023 for a three-day event.
The 2023 edition will see almost 400 exhibitors present solutions, products, machines and ideas from across the plastics sector, as well as materials, automation, contract manufacturing and supporting technologies including software, testing, inspection, surface treatments and much more.
From the 26-28th September 2023, high-profile exhibitors including Arburg, Engel, Negri Bossi, Billion, Summit Systems, Borche, Sepro Robotique, Piovan, Haitian, Snetor, Albis, Biesterfeld, TH Plastics, Bole, CMS, BMB, Simoldes and hundreds more will meet with over 12,000 attendees at the NEC, Birmingham to demonstrate the machinery, materials and services available to solve the current and future challenges of the plastics industry.
Duncan Wood, CEO of Rapid News Group said, “On the back of a highly successful 2021, despite the challenges of a pandemic and a fuel strike, we are looking forward to celebrating the 75th birthday of Interplas with the whole of the UK plastics industry.
"The enthusiasm for 2023 in the months after the show has demonstrated that the market is still 100% behind Interplas. We have planned a host of new enhancements and investments for the next edition, to ensure the show is relevant for the next 75 years. We will create an experience that is both a celebration of the UK plastics sector and still the primary place to do business.”
During its 75-year history, Interplas has built a platform for the UK plastics community to convene and create business opportunities. It is known for hosting new machinery, new product launches, breaking news announcements and exclusive demonstrations.
The latest figures show the UK plastics market has a turnover of £27bn, with over 6,000 companies and 182,000 people directly employed by the industry; Interplas is the showcase for these numbers, and they come alive on the show floor.
After the incredible success of Interplas 2021, Interplas 2023 has seen a record rebook rate already, with many previous exhibitors eager to return and emulate the triumphs of previous years.
