The flagship Italian plastics industry event, which takes place from May 29th - June 1st 2018, has received an upsurge in interest for the next outing of the triennial show, with overseas exhibitors requesting a third (34 per cent) more space than last time.
"With just under a year to go, nearly 90 per cent of the available space has been reserved," stated President of event organiser Promaplast Alessandro Grassi.
"With a significant increase in the space requested by foreign participants confirming the international stature of the fair. So we have high expectations for the final results of PLAST 2018."
In addition to foreign participants requesting more space on the show floor to showcase their offerings to the Italian market, the overall number of direct exhibitors coming from abroad has jumped by 15 per cent. Positive trends are apparent in all good categories, from machinery, to equipment, to moulds to the various different manufacturing processes, raw materials additives and more.
Event organisers have begun dividing the exhibition halls into different categories and encourage those interested in coming to the show to act quickly to guarantee a stand.
PLAST 2018 exhibitors will be offered a series of updated services, including the web portals Expopage and Smart Catalog of FieraMilano, free WiFi at the fairgrounds, one free parking space for each exhibitor and carpeting in the aisles.
