The Plastics Industry Association (PLASTICS) places the health and safety of members, exhibitors, staff, and the attendees as its highest priority. After consultation with medical and legal experts, Officers of the Board, the NPE executive committee, exhibitors, and the association membership, the PLASTICS Board of Directors has decided and announced the cancellation of the in-person components of NPE2021, scheduled for May 17–21, 2021, in Orlando, Florida due to the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic.
After extensive review, it has been determined that it is not possible to hold the planned event and also provide a safe environment at that time and location, and therefore PLASTICS has decided to cancel the in-person show.
NPE is a leading plastics trade show in the Americas.
While PLASTICS is disappointed by the circumstances that led to this decision, it knows that the plastics industry is strong and resilient. Over the past ten months, the industry has been leading the transformation of manufacturing processes and supply chain operations that deliver medical equipment and supplies to pharmaceutical companies, medical supply manufacturers, and healthcare workers, protecting first responders and frontline workers against the pandemic.
By bringing companies at the forefront of plastics manufacturing together in other ways, PLASTICS will continue to provide opportunities for the industry to solve the needs and reimagine how to meet the challenges.
