On 4-5 October Kistamässan will be opening its doors to the well-established packaging event Empack.
Together, Empack, Packaging Innovations and Label & Print make up the biggest packaging event taking place in the Nordic region this year. One of the most interesting speakers at this year’s event is Moira Cullen from New York.
New for 2017, the packaging trade show is once again being organised alongside Logistics & Distribution after a three-year gap. Over 200 exhibitors will showcase everything in the way of smart, future packaging solutions and the latest innovations. 3D printers, intelligent packaging and smart transport and logistics solutions are just some of the products and solutions to be exhibited. The event will also boast a fine programme of speakers featuring some of Sweden’s best known professionals and experts in the packaging industry. There will also be intense panel debates focusing on the challenges and opportunities faced by the industry.
