“Sustainability at NPE is a top priority. We’re committed to helping our exhibitors conduct their business in a way that drives value for society, the environment, and the industry.”

THE NPE Recycling Program
The NPE Recycling Program allows exhibits that generate large volumes of scrap to collect and recycle, so that no plastic scrap generated during the show will be disposed of as waste.
Supported by Commercial Plastics Recycling (CPR), Conair and WEIMA, the program was enthusiastically embraced in 2015, 2018, and 2024, and we look forward to its return in 2027.
