Plastivision Arabia , the international plastics exhibition and conference, is set to bring a host of new machinery and equipment to the region that will help plastic processors gain a competitive advantage in the marketplace, said an event statement.

Now in its third year, the exhibition will showcase leading global manufacturers and several technical innovations that can generate outstanding output with minimum power consumption and faster return on investment.

Polystar, a globally recognized machine manufacturer of plastic recycling, blown film extrusion and sealing machines, is one such international major. The company will exhibit Eco-Flex, the ABA blown film technology that produces a thinner, stronger film at substantially lower production cost. Visitors to the show will be able to see live how the ABA blown film technology works and order the machines directly.

Polystar will also provide high-level customisation, depending on the requirement, space and budget of prospective clients.

“Plastivision Arabia has come to be known for introducing a wide range of new technology, which has found ready takers in the region. In fact, it has acquired a unique reputation for seeing all its machines and equipment on live display being sold even before the show comes to an end,” said Saif Mohammed Al Midfa, CEO, Expo Centre Sharjah.

“Regional plastics processors have readily accepted anything that helps them cut down the usage of virgin raw material and thus reduce production cost. For film producers, the ABA blown film technology is a great replacement of monolayer machines,” Al Midfa added.

Polystar is part of the impressive line-up of Taiwanese exhibitors that have confirmed their participation, including Lung Meng, Matila, KWT, Seal Pack, Auger, Long Durable Machinery, Hao Yu, Chum, San Tung, Pack Leader, Atlas, Kung Long Hong, Inora, Chuan Peng, Vpet and Hemingstone, among others.

The exhibition will be open from 22 to 25 February at Expo Centre Sharjah, UAE.
