Highlights from Women in Plastics K 2025

‘Women in Plastics’ successfully demonstrated at K just how important dialogue, visibility and networking are for women in the plastics and rubber industry. In an industry that remains heavily male-dominated, much potential remains untapped – and this is precisely where the initiative comes in. Whether they are up-and-coming talent, specialists or executives – “Women in Plastics” brings women from the sector together, promotes dialogue and creates space for new perspectives and career opportunities – extending beyond the event itself.
