Attendance and floor-space figures projected for the 2027 edition.
Expo Metal Plast moves to northern Mexico, to the industrial heartland known as the Detroit of Mexico. The decision follows a clear strategy: connect advanced manufacturing with the plastics processing industry, and put your company in front of the plants that use, process and buy your products.
Historically the backbone of the region. It laid the technical, logistical and operational foundations of southeast Coahuila's industrial development.
A highly integrated ecosystem where plastic has gone from a secondary input to a priority structural component of the export automotive supply chain.
The automotive and auto parts sector generates more than 50% of manufacturing GDP in southeast Coahuila, making it one of Mexico's leading auto parts exporters.
The mold is metal, the part is plastic. Expo Metal Plast brings both supply chains, and everything that connects them, onto one show floor.
Molds, dies, die casting, molding machines and gauges.
Polymers, chemicals, steel, aluminum, tubing and sheet.
Assembly, component manufacturing, maquila and production capacity.
Automation, industrial technology, pneumatics, sensors and controls.
Key buying sectors on the floor: automotive, home appliances, medical, electronics, recycling and maquila.
Expo Metal Plast will connect with more than 40 industrial parks within 20 minutes, in front of the real decision-makers and their supplier networks for OEMs and Tier 1, 2 and 3.
