Held at the Sydney Showgrounds, Sydney Olympic Park on March 7-10, 2017, Auspack 2017 is on track to be the biggest Sydney show in its history, with 95 percent of Packed exhibition expected space being sold out months in advance.

Exhibition director Luke Kasprzak said visitors can expect a number of new elements on offer on the exhibition floor, with technology a focus of the 2017 event.

“As the industry moves towards smarter engineering and data, automation and robotics become key, it’s imperative we highlight this trend on the show floor,” he said.

“Other trends featured include food safety and hygiene, active and intelligent packaging and a continued focus on food processing.

“As Australasia’s most comprehensive, free, food, beverage and pharmaceutical processing, and packaging exhibition, there is a lot to pack into four days so we want to make their experience as simple and useful as possible.

“It’s all about maximizing the visitor’s time while onsite at Auspack 2017 to ensure their business objectives are met and their expectations exceeded.”

Leading Packed exhibition expected s include Walls Machinery, Insignia, Case Packaging Systems, Biotec Solutions, Matthews, Contract Packaging Systems and Visy, as well as major international exhibitors including Cama, Concetti, Multiplex Packaging, Qimarox and Krueger & Salecker Maschinenbau.
