Plastimagen México – Herbold Meckesheim records restraint in the field of recycling

Herbold Meckesheim presented itself in the German pavilion and was actively supported by its Mexican representation. After the pandemic-related restrictions of the past two years, industry and sector representatives, cooperation partners and customers flocked to the booth, all the more delighted to learn about the latest technological developments of the Meckesheim-based machinery manufacturer with a view to recycling plants and machine solutions. Especially washing plants, granulators and pulverizers were in the focus of interest.

Although the trade fair reports a "historic level of pre-sales", a certain restraint can also be felt in the Latin American region. While investment decisions in Europe are influenced by the military conflict on the continent, in Latin and South America the lack of raw materials and primary products, far from the price development, determines the situation.

It fits in with the efforts of the recyclers that the Plastimagen has set itself the goal of producing no plastic waste. Thus, 18 tons of plastic waste have been collected so far to be sent to a recycling plant. Plastimagen México 2023 is again scheduled at Centro Citibanamex in Mexico City for November 7-10. Herbold Meckesheim has made a firm note of the date.
