Plastic Materials in Plant Engineering
International Conference
New developments and Experience in the Industrial Application
November 25 - 26, 2025, Erding near Munich, Germany
About the Conference
The 9th International Conference Plastics in Plant Engineering offers the opportunity to obtain comprehensive information on topics related to plastics in tank and plant engineering. Practical and informative lectures will bring participants up to date on all aspects of plastics in industrial plant engineering. The latest developments and findings will be presented and discussed.
Practical lectures and project reports in the field of tank, plant and pipeline construction are planned, as well as presentations on the design, layout and selection of materials for thermoplastic components. The EU Drinking Water Directive will also be discussed, along with the latest developments in the field of PFAS. The circular economy and sustainability will also be an important topic.
Take the opportunity to network and update your knowledge!
The Conference is intended for
- Apparatus and tank builders
- Plant builders and plant design engineers
- Manufacturers of pipe- and ventilation systems
- Engineers and designers
- Plant operators
- Manufacturers of raw materials and semi-finished products
- Specialized dealers for plastic materials
- Research and development, universities
