The Universitat Politècnica de Catalunya - BarcelonaTech (UPC), through UPC Technology Center, CIT UPC, will be present at the 2026 edition of Equiplast (Equiplast26), the International Plastics and Rubber Event, which will take place from 2 to 5 June at the Gran Via venue of Fira Barcelona, within the Clúster MAV’s stand.
Once again, the UPC will be present at Equiplast, Spain’s International Plastics and Rubber event, connecting over 3,400 companies from key sectors such as packaging, automotive and construction. For four days, Equiplast will showcase innovative and sustainable solutions to drive the circular economy and the transition to a greener future.
As in previous editions, and as a member of the Advanced Materials Cluster of Catalonia (Clúster MAV), CIT UPC will participate in this exhibition at the Cluster’s stand, strengthening collaboration with the innovation ecosystem in advanced materials.
CIT UPC’s presence at Equiplast 2026 will showcase the UPC’s technological capabilities and innovative projects in this field, as well as our strong commitment to fostering knowledge transfer from the University to the business community, in line with the sector’s key challenges, including sustainability, the circular economy and innovation.
CIT UPC’s presence at Equiplast 2026 will showcase the UPC’s technological capabilities and innovative projects in this field, further enhancing its commitment to fostering knowledge transfer from the University to business.
The projects and innovations to be presented during the event will be announced soon.
