Packaging Solutions
Packaging Innovations transcends borders, appealing to an increasingly global audience and enticing international exhibitors and attendees alike.
Since the first event back in 2005, Packaging Innovations has expanded its remit to encompass more of the industry; it has been reimagined to better reflect the needs of exhibitors and attendees alike; and changes continue to be made in line with manufacturing today and the wider world.
Packaging Innovations & Empack 2025 will welcome exhibitors from countries across Europe as well as Turkey, India and China when the doors open at the NEC, Birmingham on 12 and 13 February next year.
Given its geographic proximity, it is not surprising that there are a number of companies coming from continental Europe to exhibit at Packaging Innovations & Empack 2025.
Well known exhibitors from across Europe include the Italian film manufacturer Taghleef Industries (N42), Spanish material supplier Lecta (N50) and packaging converter Saica Flex (P40), renowned and awarded flexible packaging manufacturer A Hatzopoulos (C78) from Greece, and German carton and flexible packaging solutions specialist Schur Star Systems (M50).
