Future Materials Group attended K Fair 2025 in Düsseldorf

Düsseldorf, 13-14th October 2025 – Future Materials Group (FMG) attended K Fair 2025, the world’s leading trade fair for plastics and rubber, where global industry leaders gathered to explore the innovations shaping the materials value chain.

This year’s event underscored the transformation underway across the sector — from the commercialisation of circularity to strategic adaptation amid energy market volatility.

Circularity as a business imperative
Recycling technologies have reached a new level of maturity. From melt filtration systems to certified post-consumer recyclates, K Fair 2025 made it clear that the circular economy is no longer a sustainability narrative — it has become a commercial imperative. Leading producers are now integrating circularity into core business models, rather than treating it as an environmental add-on.

Strategic responses to energy volatility
European producers are continuing to navigate a challenging energy landscape. Many are consolidating portfolios, reassessing market positions, and redefining their value propositions. Those adopting agile strategies and leveraging differentiated technologies are demonstrating stronger resilience and competitiveness.

Innovation amid adversity
Despite the broader macroeconomic headwinds, innovation remains strong. Several companies showcased how targeted R&D investment, clear value articulation, and disciplined strategic planning are enabling them to outperform peers and drive growth.
