ArabPlast 2027 Set for March in Dubai, Spotlighting Plastics & Recycling

16 October 2026: ArabPlast 2027 is scheduled for 24-26 March 2027 at Dubai World Trade Centre in Dubai, United Arab Emirates. The organiser’s official announcement places the exhibition in Halls 1-8, bringing plastics, recycling, petrochemicals, packaging and rubber suppliers together for buyers assessing materials, machinery and production technologies. Expo will bring more than 950 exhibitors from over 35 countries, reaffirming its position as the region’s premier business and technology platform.

The biennial exhibition returns for its 18th edition. Its published scope covers raw materials, processing equipment and finished products, giving manufacturers and converters a starting point for planning supplier meetings. 

What will ArabPlast 2027 cover?

The organiser’s exhibit profile lists polymers and resins, masterbatches, pigments, adhesives, bioplastics and specialty chemicals. Machinery categories include extrusion, injection moulding, blow moulding, packaging, converting and recycling equipment.

For printing and packaging businesses, the scope also includes coating compounds, pad printing, containers, films and sheets. These categories make the show relevant beyond resin production, extending into the materials and processes used to manufacture and decorate packaging.

Recycling forms part of the exhibition scope

The official programme description places sustainability and the circular economy among the event’s themes. Listed exhibit categories include reclaimed plastics and rubber, filtration and separation systems, rubber recycling, automation and environmental management systems.

For packaging converters, a useful question is how materials and print treatments behave during recycling. Screen Print India’s coverage of recycling-friendly label coatings offers background on that issue. The example is relevant technical context, not confirmation that the supplier will exhibit at ArabPlast.

Who should consider visiting?

The organiser’s visitor profile identifies machinery buyers, factory owners, production managers, material suppliers, distributors, exporters and recycling professionals among its intended audience. Buyers can use the published product categories to shortlist the kinds of suppliers they want to meet.

For a wider view of international sourcing events, Screen Print India’s report on the K-Alliance trade fair network explains the portfolio and includes ArabPlast among the exhibitions discussed.
