HIPLEX-2026 concludes on a Record High, Unlocking Fresh Growth Avenues for India’s Plastics Sector.
The four-day mega edition of HIPLEX 2026 held at Hyderabad concluded on a highly successful note, firmly reaffirming its stature as the largest plastics exhibition in South and Central India. The event not only showcased the dynamism of the domestic plastics industry but also opened substantial new business opportunities for exhibitors and visitors alike, reinforcing the sector’s potential for sustained expansion.
Held as a focused industry platform, HIPLEX 2026 set fresh benchmarks across multiple parameters. The exhibition attracted over 55,000 business visitors from various parts of India, underscoring the strong interest among processors, converters, machinery manufacturers, raw-material suppliers and end-users. The large and purposeful footfall reflected the growing demand for advanced plastics technologies and the readiness of industry participants to explore capacity enhancements and new projects.
A defining feature of the show was its extensive live technology showcase. More than 150 machines operated in real time on the exhibition floor, giving visitors a practical demonstration of next-generation equipment and processes. To ensure uninterrupted performance, the organisers provided free power, compressed air and water to all exhibitors—an arrangement that enabled seamless live demonstrations and allowed delegates to evaluate machinery under actual working conditions. This hands-on exposure proved particularly valuable for decision-makers evaluating investments in modernisation and automation.
The commercial outcome of the event was equally impressive. Business transactions exceeding Rs.500 crore was concluded during the four days, accompanied by significant advance bookings for new projects and capacity expansions. These figures highlight the confidence currently prevailing in the Indian plastics industry and the role of well-organised trade platforms in facilitating concrete commercial engagements.
Industry participants widely appreciated the disciplined, professional and highly focused character of HIPLEX 2026. Unlike multi-sector events that dilute attention, the exhibition remained strictly dedicated to the plastics value chain, free from unrelated distractions. This clarity of purpose enabled meaningful interactions, technology transfer and the forging of long-term business relationships.
Overall, HIPLEX 2026 has emerged as a significant catalyst for the plastics sector in South and Central India. By bringing together suppliers, buyers and technology providers under one roof, the event fostered knowledge exchange, accelerated adoption of advanced solutions and created tangible growth opportunities. The success of this edition stands as a testament to the collaborative efforts of all stakeholders.
The organisers extend heartfelt thanks to the exhibitors, visitors, sponsors and the entire team of the Telangana And Andhra Plastics Manufacturers’ Association (TAAPMA) whose collective commitment made HIPLEX 2026 a landmark success. As the industry looks ahead, the momentum generated by the show is expected to translate into continued investment, innovation and expansion in the months to come.
