KRAIBURG TPE pone forti accenti nello sviluppo di nuove mescole per il contatto con gli alimenti e la protezione antincendio

Nuovi materiali per applicazioni a contatto con gli alimenti e ulteriori sviluppi nel campo del ritardo di fiamma sono i prodotti di punta del K 2025 di KRAIBURG TPE. (Bild: © 2025 KRAIBURG TPE)Subito dopo la sua fondazione, nel 1952, la “K” si è affermata come fiera leader a livello mondiale per la produzione e la lavorazione di materie plastiche e gomma. L'ampio ciclo triennale in cui si svolge da allora garantisce un'altissima densità di informazioni e innovazioni all'interno dell'esposizione complessiva. Le aspettative sono altrettanto elevate quando, nella seconda settimana di ottobre del 2025, Düsseldorf ospiterà circa 180.000 visitatori della fiera in “febbre da K”! KRAIBURG TPE si sta preparando già da diversi mesi. 150 metri quadrati dei circa 175.000 metri quadrati di spazio espositivo saranno nuovamente riservati al produttore di TPE di Waldkraiburg nella rinomata “Gummistraße” (con posizione dello stand “Hall 6, stand #C58-03”).
