The Russian plastics & rubber industry continues to grow dynamically

24,000 trade visitors attended INTERPLASTICA 2008 in Moscow

INTERPLASTICA was staged for the 11th time at the Moscow fairgrounds in Krasnaya Presnya by Messe Düsseldorf and its subsidiary Messe Düsseldorf Moscow OOO. Spread across a net exhibition area of over 13,000 square metres and featuring 580 exhibitors from 29 countries, this was the biggest INTERPLASTICA to date. Russian, German and Italian suppliers formed the dominant exhibitor contingents: Russia was represented by 173 companies, Germany by 150 and Italy by 89 exhibitors. Werner M. Dornscheidt, President and CEO of Messe Düsseldorf GmbH, commented on the success of the event: “The exhibitors were impressed by the number and decision-making powers of visitors who had done their homework and consequently made specific queries and placed numerous orders. It just goes to show that even three months after the world’s No. 1 event for the industry, K in Düsseldorf, it’s still worth exhibiting on the dynamic Russian market. INTERPLASTICA is indispensable to business in this region!”

During INTERPLASTICA 2008, many companies were already indicating interest in participating in the next event. The 2009 fair will once again open its doors in Moscow in conjunction with UPAKOVKA/UPAK ITALIA and take place between 27 and 30 January.
