The German Plastics Processing Industry Association (GKV) was exhibiting at K 2025 in Düsseldorf with a diverse range of stand features (Hall 8a F-11-1). Visitors could experience plastics processing first-hand – – from an interactive obstacle course and VR headsets to a mini injection moulding machine.

In addition, the GKV was hosting an event on higher education to showcase innovative degree programmes in the field of plastics technology and provide inspiration for promoting the next generation of talent. Another highlight was the meeting of the ‘Club of the Best’, where the winners of the Günter Schwank Prize came together to network with the industry.
