Were determined to make this our biggest and most exciting Packaging Innovations & Empack ever, alongside a massive Contract Pack & Fulfilment event, and we hope this announcement serves as a real statement of intent for anyone looking to attend.
“Were particularly excited about the extra spotlight on Contract Pack & Fulfilment as part of the Packaging Innovations showcase. We have some incredible exhibitors as part of Contract Pack & Fulfilment this year, with cutting-edge sustainability and automation specialists Intertape and high-quality value-adding co-packing service provider Lemonpath just two of the companies visitors will want to meet. It ensures attendees can explore and get inspired by creative innovations to support every step of the packaging journey, from concept to shipping and logistics services.”

Packaging Innovations is a unique platform for the best our industry has to offer – and, as it runs alongside Empack and Contract Pack & Fulfilment, this year really is the total package!”
