The 17th International Plastics and Petrochemical Trade Exhibition
The fair took place from January 13 to 16, 2020 at the Riyadh International Convention & Exhibition Centre, Riyadh, Saudi Arabia.
As the country seeks to drive development in line with Saudi Vision 2030, exploring the potentials of the plastics, petrochemical, printing and packaging sectors is imperative to promote industrial sustainability and to improve the possibilities of other sectors.
By bringing together visitors and exhibitors on a lively platform, the event serves the goal of bringing together international companies and local institutions to encourage constructive dialogue and knowledge exchange.
The exhibition is not large, but it has exhibitors from various sectors connected to the plastics industry in the areas of:
- Plastics: chemicals, raw materials, composites, plastic pipes and products
- Instruments: laboratory and control equipment, software, control and monitoring systems
- Petrochemicals: chemical and petrochemical processing and conveying equipment, systems for chemical process engineering, machinery and equipment for chemical plants, energy carriers, environmental safety equipment, filters and filtration systems

- Auxiliary equipment: measurement, control and testing devices
- Extruder wear parts: screws, barrels, support shafts
It was the first time that C.A.PICARD® exhibited in this country. Although visitor numbers are not comparable to large fairs like K or ChinaPlas, C.A.PICARD® made several important contacts and held productive high-level conversations with some larger companies.
