From 08 to 15 October 2025, the world's leading trade fair for the plastics and rubber industries will be held daily at the Düsseldorf exhibition center. The K trade fair in Düsseldorf addresses the current challenges, especially of its industry. For example, topics such as sustainability, resource conservation, circular economy and digitalization, which gained momentum at K 2022, will also be among the trade show's hot topics at exhibitor stands and in the supporting program in 2025.
K 2025 will present its topics to visitors from the fields of plastic goods manufacturing, the chemical industry, rubber manufacturing as well as rubber processing, mechanical engineering, packaging and distribution, vehicle manufacturing, aerospace, electronics and electrical engineering, construction & building and housing, medical technology, precision mechanics, optics, ITC, energy technology and photovoltaics, agriculture, sports and leisure, trade and services and, in addition, to universities and technical colleges as well as to the manufacturing trades.
The plastics and rubber industry's delight at finally being able to exchange ideas in person again on a global level after three years characterized the course of K 2022 Düsseldorf and created an excellent mood among the 3,037 exhibitors. The companies reported extraordinarily good contacts and a clear willingness to invest on the part of the trade visitors, the establishment of promising new customer relationships and numerous business deals, some of them spontaneous. 176,000 trade visitors from all continents traveled to the industry event. The proportion of international guests at K 2022 was consistently high at over 70 percent.
