PLASTASIA 2027 takes place at Bharat Mandapam (Pragati Maidan) in New Delhi from 20 May to 23 May 2027. 9th edition of the international trade fair for the plastics industry covering machinery, raw materials and finished products, 750+ exhibitors.

What the fair covers

Polymer processing, moulding technology and rubber production lead the exhibit list. 9th edition of the international trade fair for the plastics industry covering machinery, raw materials and finished products, 750+ exhibitors. That shapes both the exhibitor mix and the questions worth preparing before you arrive.

Dates, venue and getting there

The fair runs from 20 May to 23 May 2027 at Bharat Mandapam (Pragati Maidan) in New Delhi. It runs for 4 days, which is usually enough to cover several product areas without rushing. New Delhi hosts many of India's largest trade fairs. Traffic is heavy and journey times vary widely by time of day, so allow generous margins when scheduling meetings. The metro is often the more predictable option for reaching exhibition grounds.

Planning your visit

Machinery fairs justify the trip because equipment can be seen running. A machine on a stand tells you about cycle time, noise, footprint and build quality in a way that a specification sheet does not. Buyers usually come with a production requirement and compare how different suppliers propose to meet it. For PLASTASIA 2027, that means preparing ahead of the May dates and arriving with a target list of stands.

Language and interpreting support

English is used routinely in Indian business and most exhibitors will handle commercial discussions in it comfortably. Where language support helps is less about translation and more about local knowledge: understanding regional supplier bases, verifying company credentials and navigating logistics is where an experienced local contact adds most. An interpreter already working in New Delhi saves further time simply by knowing the venue and how to move around it.

After the fair

Buying production equipment is a longer commitment than buying goods. Installation, operator training, spare parts and service response all affect the real cost of ownership, and they are easier to negotiate before the order than after it. Factory visits are common before committing, since seeing the manufacturer build the machine tells you more than seeing it on a stand.
