Interplast Pack East Africa is the leading annual trade fair for plastics processing, packaging, and printing in East Africa. It serves as a key meeting point for decision-makers, manufacturers, and innovators who are actively shaping the African market.

The event takes place at the Diamond Jubilee Expo Center in Dar es Salaam, Tanzania’s economic hub on the shores of the Indian Ocean. Each year, industry professionals and exhibitors gather here to showcase product innovations, establish business contacts, and discuss current market developments.

The fair is organized by MXM Exhibitions, an internationally active trade fair organizer specializing in export-oriented B2B platforms across Africa and the Middle East.

The exhibition presents a wide range of solutions – from plastics, polymers, rubber, films, packaging, and labeling to recycling technologies and machinery for molding and printing, extrusion, injection molding, automation, drying, mixing, and dosing. Related sectors such as refrigeration, air compression, corrugated processing, pulp, and paper finishing are also represented.

Exhibitors primarily come from the fields of plastics engineering, packaging, mechanical engineering, automation, food processing, chemicals, and printing. The main visitors include decision-makers from industry, manufacturing, agriculture, retail, logistics, as well as representatives of public institutions and NGOs – all seeking innovative technologies, sustainable solutions, and reliable partnerships.

A key focus of the trade fair is innovation and sustainability. Expert panels and discussion forums address topics such as recycling technologies, eco-friendly packaging solutions, and resource-efficient production processes.
