A few months after Interpack, the beverage specialists among the packaging experts will be meeting again in fall from September 11 to 15, 2017, at Drinktec in Munich, Germany. Trade show innovations are not to be expected everywhere here, but are definitely to be found where plastics processing and use are concerned.

Refining the Details 

For almost two decades, an expert committee, meeting once a year, has supported Kunststoffe magazine in determining the state of play in the plastics industry and identifying current technical developments. This time, the traditional spring meeting gave it an opportunity to debate the consequences of the Corona virus.

Taking new paths: during the Corona crisis, certain technical obstacles were also overcome by the Kunststoffe publisher advisory committee, who held a round table discussion by video conference for the first time. Present by video link were, among others, (top, from left) Dr. Guiscard Glück, Prof. Christian Hopmann (bottom, from left) Martin Würtele and Dr. Achim Eggert

Starting up under the Shadow  of Corona

There is little doubt where we are heading: multilayer packaging will have to become easier to recycle – but what does that mean for the technology? And what solutions will the market need and accept? Manufacturers of branded goods are not the only ones who will have to rethink their specifications.

Ultrasonic sealing is a reliable and economical alternative to typical contact heat sealing. Narrow seams, tight seals in spite of product contamination and high efficiency in terms of energy usage characterize the latest technology that provides optimal protection for the fill goods.

Sealing: Packaging with Ultrasonics 

Volatile demand for film production lines is the shifting ground on which the Brückner Group has been operating successfully for years. It repeatedly opens up new markets through acquisitions. Standard systems for packaging are required to achieve greater productivity. In "specialties," development of the technology is driven by trends such as separator films for batteries.

Even more than with foodstuffs, what matters in most cases with drug packaging is the contents protected by the wrapping. These are not good conditions to pursue a cycle concept for packaging. But times are changing – perhaps.

Steps to More Sustainable Packaging in the Medical and Cosmetics Industries

No Chance for the Cycle Concept?

The challenges associated with recycling food packaging are particularly great in the flexible-packaging sector. Multilayer composites are often a hindrance to mechanical recycling, yet are irreplaceable in many applications. Replacements will not be found until recyclable and ecologically sustainable packaging solutions are devised.

Productivity Increase: Successful New Generation 

The packaging industry is facing new challenges. The beautiful covers are expected to be thinner and thinner, while fulfilling more and more functions. As a result, conventional packaging materials are put to the test.

From 27 to 29 September 2022, it will once again be time for Fachpack to open its doors at Exhibition Centre Nuremberg.

From 27 to 29 September 2022, it will once again be time for Fachpack to open its doors at Exhibition Centre Nuremberg. In addition to the trade fair section, the forums also promise an exciting look at current developments and trends.

From 27 to 29 September 2022, it will once again be time for Fachpack, the trade fair for packaging, technology and processes, to open its doors at Exhibition Centre Nuremberg. Under the banner “Transition in Packaging”, more than 1,100 exhibitors will present their innovative products and solutions for the packaging of the future in nine exhibition halls.

The trade fairsees itself as a trailblazer and source of inspiration for the industry. As such, it is once again organising an extensive programme of presentations to complement the exhibition. The Packbox forum (Hall 9), Techbox forum (Halle 3C) and exhibitor forum Innovation (Hall 5) will all feature interesting topics and speakers.

The forums are always a crowd puller: Last year, the Packbox and Techbox forums attracted around 9,500 participants. What is special about the forums is that the programme is designed by prestigious partners from the packaging sector that invite participants not just to listen to the presentations but to get actively involved in the discussions as well. The forums will address topical industry issues like sustainability, digitalisation, the shortage of skilled personnel, supply chain bottlenecks, the energy crisis, supply chain management, raw material prices, and a whole lot more.

Each day, the forums focus on a different topic. In Packbox, which is all about packaging, packaging printing and finishing, these topics are “Market Experience and Expectations” (27.9.), “Sustainable Design & Material” (28.9.) and “Packaging: digital & smart” (29.9.). In the Techbox forum, which focuses on packaging technology and logistics, the themes are “Innovation & Climate Strategy” (27.9.), “New Work: future working models in packaging (28.9.) and “Efficiency & Digitalisation” (29.9.). The forums are accompanied by the exhibitor forum Innovationbox in Hall 5, where registered exhibitors can introduce their innovations and product highlights to trade visitors in live, 30-minute presentations.
