Visit these specialized areas and meet exhibitors that feature products and services tailored to specialized technology areas.
If you are coming to NPE2024 for something very specific, make sure you check out the six zones situated on the show floor. These are specialized areas that are intended to be complementary to the main exhibit area where you can meet exhibitors that feature products and services tailored to specialized technology areas.
At NPE2024, the zones shape up as follows:
Bottle Zone: Home to the Beer Garden and education stage, there’s no better place for cold brews and the latest bottle news.
Recycling & Sustainability Zone: The NPE Recycling & Sustainability Zone is so vital to the industry that we made two of them — one in each hall. Get inspired to reduce plastic waste by exploring the latest in new end-market solutions, bioplastics, lightweighting, circularity and more. We’re showcasing the entire product life cycle — from pellet to part, and back to pellet — to highlight the importance of recycling and sustainability for a greener plastics economy.
Materials Science Zone: If you’ve had your eye on a specific raw material and are wondering if it has the characteristics to meet your needs, the Materials Science Zone is for you.
