DIARYDATES

SPECIAL PRESENTATION: “PLASTICS
MOVE THE WORLD”
The world of plastics will meet from 16th
October to 23th October 2013 at Düsseldorf:
K, the globally premier trade fair for plastics
and rubber, the industry’s meeting point for
innovation, information and investment.
On almost 170,000 square metres of exhibition
space in 19 halls, over 3,000 exhibitors will
provide details. Right in the middle of it all is

the traditional special presentation “Plastics
move”, hosted by the German plastics industry
and Messe Düsseldorf under the aegis of
PlasticsEurope Deutschland e.V.
The word “move” is interpreted in a broad
sense at the special presentation: it comprises the
contributions of plastics to the various facets of
mobility as well as emotional aspects like e.g. the

arts and design, or triggers for future-oriented
solutions. The topical area “Plastics move – the
future” highlights innovations and visions,
covering energy-efficient housing, the medicines
of tomorrow, water treatment, and food for a
growing world population.

SOLAR MEETS GLASS CONFERENCE
TAKES A BREAK
The “Solar meets Glass – 4th Industry
Summit for Markets, Costs and
Technology,” scheduled to take place
at the Radisson Blu Scandinavia Hotel
Du?sseldorf on 9th and 10th October, has
been cancelled.

‘Over 130 participants’

Over the course of the current year, the
sector has increasingly been focusing its
strengths in other areas and paying less
attention to the module manufacturing
segment – specifically in the German
marketplace.
After successfully staging Solar meets Glass
with over 130 participants in the context

of glasstec last year, organising partners
Messe Du?sseldorf, Solarpraxis and OTTI
(Ostbayerisches Technologie-Transfer-Institut
e.V.) have agreed to take this step.
Solar meets Glass will resume as planned in
October of 2014 – again as part of glasstec,
the world’s leading trade fair for the glass
industry.
