These three shows will therefore take place from 1st to 5th December 2020. The decision has been made in view of the current situation caused by COVID-19 with the aim of holding the exhibition in a more positive environment. The presi- dent of Expoquimia, Carles Navarro, emphasised the support of most of the main industry agents, as well as the importance of preserving the event, which will have even more participants “in this year’s international fair calendar.” On the other hand, the president of Eurosurfas, Giampiero Cortinovis, has point- ed out that “moving the show to December is the best option when considering the current scenario”, while the president of Equiplast, Bernd Roegele, has stated that “the logistic needs of Equiplast, which require some time for the transport and build-up of the equipment on display, make it advisable to hold it in Decem- ber.” With an expected turnout of more than 600 direct exhibitors, the joint celebration of Expoquimia, Equiplast and Eurosurfas is the leading trade fair platform for ap- plied chemistry in Southern Europe, where all the initiatives that mark the future trends of three fundamental sectors for social and economic development will be on display. Equiplast postponed www.targikielce.pl www.plastpol.com Andrzej Mochoń, Targi Kielce President of Board: “Because Poland’s govern- ment as well as governments of many other countries have announced epidemio- logical threat, thus the situation makes it impossible for us to hold the PLASTPOL expo on previously announced date, i.e. 19-22 May 2020. Following numerous, in-depth discussions with our partners, exhibitors and expo guests, we resolved to postpone our region’s leading plastics and rubber industry event. PLASTPOL – the International Fair of Plastics and Rubber Processing is held on a new date – from 6 to 9 October 2020. We will make every possible effort to hold PLASTPOL at the new date, but also to make it a supreme-level event. Not only will the trade show provide with the op- portunity to meet customers and business partners, the opportunity to exchange experiences and ideas on how to run a business in a new economic situation. This expo will also offer comprehensive promotional support for exhibitors. Polish and foreign media coverage, participation in radio and television shows, on-line ad- vertising campaigns and at the exhibition grounds – this and much more available at the expo. We have been connecting business people for several dozens of years. We have enabled meetings and experience exchange, we have enhanced communication and have been on a constant look for solutions which make companies develop even further. We are truly convinced that you will demonstrate understanding for the situation we are all facing. We do hope you will also be involved in the devel- oping PLASTPOL – the largest industry meeting in the region held on a new date.” Plastpol postponed
