Mumbai will focus on the urgency and evolution of plastics recycling and sustainable materials management when it hosts Plastics Recycling World India 2025 on 14-15 May at the Bombay Exhibition Centre (BEC). The two-day trade event will bring together industry professionals, recyclers, compositors and solution providers to discuss the latest innovations and technologies aimed at reshaping the plastics industry for a more sustainable future.
A dedicated platform for the plastics compounding and recycling industry, the expo will showcase a wide range of machinery, raw materials, processing solutions and sustainable alternatives. With the complexity of India's recycling ecosystem growing due to increasing environmental regulations and the push for circular economy models, events such as this one are becoming increasingly important to foster dialogue, build partnerships and raise policy awareness.
The event is expected to attract participation from all segments of the plastics supply chain, including manufacturers, packaging companies, technology developers and government representatives. The Expo also aims to promote interaction between different but interconnected markets, thereby increasing opportunities for collaboration and knowledge exchange.
One of the main features of the Expo is its free-to-attend conferences, which are expected to attract a large number of policymakers and stakeholders. These sessions will cover a range of relevant topics such as innovations in recycled materials, regulatory challenges, post-consumer waste strategies, and advances in sorting and composting technologies. Experts from India and abroad are expected to share their insights and experiences in dealing with the complex realities of plastics reuse.
This expo is particularly timely as India is transitioning to a stronger waste management and recycling system. With both the public and private sectors grappling with environmental issues related to plastic waste, events like the World Plastics Recycling Expo play an important role in connecting players who can drive practical and scalable solutions.
With sustainability at its core, Expo 2025 Mumbai will not only facilitate business transactions, but also promote a broader commitment to responsible production and recycling practices that align with global environmental goals.
