Hot Shots Injection Molded Part Competition Moves to PTXPO

Expanding its reach and profile, the Hot Shots injection molded part competition will now be part of the PTXPO plastics trade show launched in 2022. Bringing a major plastics trade show back to Chicago and the Midwest for the first time since 2009, PTXPO (March 28-30; 2023; Donald E. Stephens Convention Center) launched successfully by every measure in 2022, and thus far registration is up 168% over the inaugural event.

After the initial competition saw a winner picked by fellow molders from among 10 finalists, Hot Shots 2023 will seek to tap into PTXPO’s burgeoning injection molding community and bring even more attention and energy to the parts competition.

Does your company have a part that tested your team’s injection molding acumen? There’s still time to enter the contest and share your molding prowess with the broader injection community. Finalists will be promoted by Plastics Technology’s various media channels ahead of the event, and they will also be on display on the PTXPO tradeshow floor, so that attendees can pick the two winners for Technical Sophistication and Achievements in Molding Efficiency and/or Economics. Following the show, the winners will also be featured in coverage across PT’s media platforms in print and online.
