The PACK Expo is the largest packaging show in the world and offers great opportunity for education, industry trends, technological advancements and much more. If you’re questioning attending PACK Expo this year, I have three reasons you should!
See the Equipment in Action:
With more than 2,100 exhibitors set to showcase their brands, equipment, and services there is a lot to be said for getting a personal demonstration and conversation with an industry expert. Sure you can see what latest videos they have online, talk with a sales person over the phone, or exchange emails, but even with all the technology we have available at our finger tips, an up front, live example goes a long way in helping you determine if what your watching can benefit your process line.
Learn Something New:
There are more than 100 FREE educational opportunities available to increase your knowledge on many topics including; supplier led presentations to introduce new technology at the “Innovation Stage”, Explore the concept of Reusables, latest info on food safety issues and compliance, In-Booth Product Demos, and the Clemson University – Consumer-Driven Package Design. Click on any of the above links to find out more info and designated schedules.
Network with Industry Professionals:
There is an estimated 50,000 attendee’s from all over the globe planning to attend this year’s PACK Expo. Broaden your horizon on how you can improve your process by discussing with a peer in the packaging industry. Meet new people, form new partnerships, and gain insight on what equipment has been successful or not in certain applications.
