The inaugural edition of Plastics Live Ireland is scheduled to take place at the RDS Arena in Dublin from 26 to 27 November 2025.

Under the same motto, Know the power of plastics, the new exhibition and conference centred on the Irish plastics processing industry and OEMs follows the success of UK-based Plastics Live, first held in 2022, and aims to promote regional plastics manufacturing and production. The two-day event is to showcase new technologies, sustainable practices, and innovative solutions from across the Irish plastics sector, including injection moulding, extrusion, thermoforming, materials, additives, processing machines and peripherals, automation solutions, and recycling.

Plastics Live Ireland is to be co-located with three additional events – Sustainable Plastics Live, Additive Manufacturing in Plastics (Amplas), and Industry 4.0 in Plastics – with organiser Plastics Live expecting more than 1,500 visitors, 100 exhibitors, 35 speakers, as well as 500 CEOs and top-level managers in attendance at Dublin, according to the conference website.

KI.PIE Group will also participate in Dublin as both a media partner and exhibitor at Stand G18. Henry Praum, Director Commercial & Finance, will give a keynote presentation on 26 November entitled Recycled, Revalued, Repriced: How PCR Plastics Are Redefining Europe’s Circular Economy.

The talk will discuss KI.PIE Group’s new white paper on post-consumer recycled plastics, exploring the economic and regulatory forces transforming the European plastics industry, presenting three price scenarios that reveal how supply bottlenecks, policy ambition, and infrastructure gaps will reshape value creation.
