The 21st international trade fair for plastics processing, Fakuma 2011, will again be held in Friedrichshafen, Germany, from 18 – 22 October 2011. Organiser P. E. Schall announced that shortly after opening registration, 150 exhibitors have already made firm bookings for the 2011 edition of this important plastics fair. 80 % of these exhibitors have simultaneously opted for participation at Fakuma 2012. Schall said, he assumes that the economy will recover in 2010, that the markets will continue their upward trend in 2011, and that Fakuma 2012 will achieve record breaking results.
