Trade fair program: technical presentations & webcasts

Fakuma, taking place from Monday the 12th through Friday the 16th of October, 2026, is truly a working trade fair – pragmatic and practice-oriented. Market-ready innovations are showcased at the five-day event, which yield immediate, practical benefits for business operations. Plastics processors are provided with specific answers to their questions. They learn how to improve their manufacturing processes and how to solve problems. For many companies, the key focus is on increasing overall efficiency, strengthening resilience, conserving resources and continuing to pursue the path towards circular economy. In addition to the exhibition, technical presentations and the Fakuma round-table discussions will provide information on current topics within the industry.
