KUTENO & KPA: Together in the market - individual trade fair profile
With KUTENO and KPA, Easyfairs offers two target group-specific trade fair concepts for the plastics industry that are tailored to regional visitor groups.
KUTENO is the compact supplier fair for the entire plastics processing chain. The focus here is primarily on machines, components, technical solutions and materials. The trade visitors are decision-makers and experts from the plastics processing industry.
KPA positions itself one step further along the value chain. Plastics processors and material suppliers present their expertise to a cross-sector audience from the user industries of plastic products.
Common to both is the organisational trade fair concept with system stands limited in size, communication areas in the halls with free catering and the modern marketing tools specific to Easyfairs trade fairs.
