Our Foundation, Our Reach
72,000+ REACH — Imagine filling every seat in your favorite NFL football stadium. Then imagine being able to show off your organization’s newest equipment, products and services to that entire crowd, at one time! That's who PTXPO delivers: plastics processing professionals whom we reach on a monthly cadence through our magazines and digital media products.
Only PTXPO can harness the power of Gardner Business Media's three major plastics brands and deliver qualified buyers with one long and wide promotional reach.
One thing that differentiates PTXPO from other shows out there is the consciousness and the connection we have with show management.
We can call, we can talk, we can ask questions, and adjust plans, it’s not just top-down, one-way communication with us.
