PACK EXPO

PACK EXPO is the largest packaging and processing trade show series in the Americas, organized by PMMI, the Association for Packaging and Processing Technologies, based in Reston, Virginia. The flagship event PACK EXPO International is held in even years in Chicago, while PACK EXPO Las Vegas runs in odd years, each attracting over thirty thousand attendees and two thousand exhibitors covering packaging machinery, processing equipment, materials, containers, and packaging automation technologies. Product categories on display include filling and sealing machines, labeling systems, robotics and end-of-arm tooling, conveying and material handling, flexible film packaging, sustainable and biodegradable packaging materials, and track-and-trace serialization solutions. The show also features the Processing Innovation Zone for food, beverage, and pharmaceutical processing equipment, the Emerging Brands Summit for startup consumer product companies, and educational sessions on regulatory compliance from the Food and Drug Administration and other agencies. For consumer packaged goods manufacturers seeking packaging line upgrades and machinery suppliers targeting the North American market, this show series is the most important industry gathering in the Western Hemisphere.
