The CEPM is where Europe’s Plastics and Recycling Industry Meets to Make Deals, Debate Bold Ideas & Party on the Danube.
3 days of structured B2B matchmaking, radical conference talks, and laid-back networking — all in the heart of Central Europe, in Budapest.

Read below the pictures for more details!

🟩 WHAT MAKES THE CEPM DIFFERENT

Not your usual trade fair. CEPM is where serious business meets real conversations
— and no, we don’t do expensive booths or half-cold coffee.

We’re building Central Europe’s leading plastics industry hub: focused, efficient, and human-centered.

📍 Why Budapest? Because this is the next frontier for growth. As Western European industry players shift eastward, this region is where connections matter most.

🧩 Who’s it for? Raw material producers & distributors (both virgin and recycled), machinery and tooling companies, service providers, and plastics processors... SO REALLY FOR ALL THE PLASTICS AND RECYCLING SUPPLY CHAIN!

🟩 B2B MEETINGS – THE CORE OF CEPM 

🤝 The Heartbeat of CEPM: Pre-Scheduled B2B Meetings No aimless wandering here. 
Our pre-bookable 30-minute meetings run all day, every day — structured, smooth, and supported by smart matching tools. 

✅ You select who you want to meet 

✅ The system builds your schedule 

✅ We provide the space, coffee, and snacks 

✅ You show up and make deals happen 

📅 How It Works:
