About NPE - The International Plastics Showcase

NPE2012 will take on a fresh, bold, new form – and still maintain the tradition of excellence that has made NPE the International Plastics Showcase for 70 years!

For the first time, NPE will be held at the Orange County Convention Center in Orlando, Florida. What does this new venue mean for attendees? It means that NPE2012 will break the mold on previous shows by offering even more opportunities for every attendee and the industry as a whole.
