Packaging Solutions

With registrations now open, Packaging Innovations & Empack 2024 is getting ready to be one of the biggest dates in the packaging industry’s calendar.

Here are some of the exciting innovations you can expect to see at the NEC next February.

Berry Global

The multinational packaging and protective solution manufacturers will be bringing a range of exciting innovations to its booth this February.

The company recently began incorporating food grade recycled content in its flexible plastic packaging to meet growing demands from multiple sectors for more sustainably produced flexible packaging.

It will be exhibiting solutions that will be of interest to visitors from virtually any market, from agriculture to logistics and even speciality applications.

Schur Star Systems

Even in the fast moving world of packaging, where the market demands near constant innovations, finding something truly innovative is rare. The Schur Star concept will be live at the show.

A flexible solution, it combines premade bags with a highly versatile packaging machine that can be tailored to suit any product, process, segment, or customer need. Schur’s six step process takes into account customer needs before designing, preflighting, printing, laminating, and manufacturing the bags to a precise specification.

Graphic Packaging International

After another banner year for the fibre based packaging innovator, Graphic Packaging’s 2024 showing will be intetresting. Since last year’s show, the company has launched new innovations in its PaperSeal tray range – the PaperSeal Shape – and the Enviroclip Duo, a minimal material multipack solution for bottles and jars.

In addition, expect to see many of Graphic Packaging’s innovations on the booth, including the KeelClip solution for food and beverage can multipacks, and Boardio, a fibre based canister for nutrition, confectionery, and coffee applications.

Expack

Expack is making noise in the UK contract manufacturing sector with its range of products for the personal care, household, and pet care sectors. It is known for its range of viscous and stable sulphate free formulations for foaming products, among many other things.

Taking its place in the Contract Pack & Fulfilment section of the show floor, the Expac stand will be home to a broad range of products, as well as demonstrations of its hand assembly and gift packing capabilities.

Future Trailblazers

If it is ideas and insights you value, you don’t want to miss the second annual Future Trailblazers showcase. This event gathers some of the best and brightest young talent from all areas of the packaging industry, celebrating those who work tirelessly to impact the future of packaging.

Just like 2023’s inaugural ceremony, this event will be a must see for anyone wishing to get ahead of the curve in today’s fast paced, ever changing market.
