Why is Interplas important to you?

Interplas is important to Billion because the number and quality of visitors that attend is vital to ensuring the Billion brand is kept at the fore of the market. Interplas always proves to be a great place to catch up with existing customers and to meet new prospects as well as display new machinery and process developments.

What are the key features of these machines?

One of our many innovations enables the producer to utilise a significant percentage of recycled content in a product but retaining the aesthetics of the component.
