Italian plastics and CORONAVIRUS

The recent emergency caused by the “Coronavirus” (Covid 19) epidemic is a source of concern for Italy’s exporting companies, above all those which have intense business relationships with China.

FAITH IN THE RUSSIAN MARKET

There will be more than 40 Italian companies taking part in the Italian collective organized by Amaplast - the trade association, member of CONFINDUSTRIA, including over 160 manufacturers of machinery, equipment, and moulds for plastics and rubber processing - at the twenty-third edition of the specialized exhibition in Moscow on 28-31 January 2020. Approximately twenty other Italian companies will also participate, either on their own or via the stands of their local partners.
