Developments in the packaging industry are moving at a rapid pace. New legislation, rising raw material costs, sustainability requirements and changing customer expectations continue to evolve constantly. That is precisely why it is important to stay continuously informed about what is happening in the market. In April, Empack once again took place at Evenementenhal Gorinchem, where professionals came together to share knowledge and discover innovations. In this article, we outline a number of practical ways to keep up in a rapidly changing market.
Trends from the industry
Not only during Empack, but throughout the year, we make sure you stay informed about what is happening in the packaging industry. On the Empack website, you will find a news page featuring industry trends, columns by experts from the sector and updates from exhibitors. A wide range of topics is covered there, such as what AI can do — and, more importantly, what it cannot do, how the EUDR is putting the packaging industry under pressure, and what the hidden costs of product damage during transport are. This way, you can stay informed about relevant developments in the packaging industry even outside the event itself.
Experts on stage
This autumn, the Sustainable Packaging Summit will once again take place at the Beatrix Theatre, Jaarbeurs Utrecht. During this international event, packaging industry professionals from all over the world will come together for three inspiring days filled with panel discussions, breakout sessions, networking opportunities and presentations of the latest innovations. Topics such as changing European legislation, smart automation and sustainability developments will all be covered.
This year as well, Empack is a partner of this event, which takes place on 10, 11 and 12 November. In doing so, we once again underline the importance of knowledge sharing, collaboration and strengthening valuable connections within the industry. Together, we are committed to connecting professionals, sharing insights and stimulating innovation in a market that is constantly evolving.
