Proven
successes: SAVE FOOD and FMCG Future Zone
After the extremely successful Chinese premiere of SAVE FOOD
during swop 2017, this segment will once again focus extensively on solutions
that contribute to curbing food waste and loss in 2019. A conference and a
special presentation will take place in cooperation with FAO in Hall N2 and will
illuminate approaches along the entire value chain, from the field to our
plate.
The special topic “FMCG Future Zone” was also very well received in 2017 and in 2019 will once again present trends around the most diverse materials, technologies and designs in the segments food, cosmetics and pharmaceuticals, spread out across around 12,000 square metres. Once again, the concept has been realised in cooperation with PKG Family, a leading organisation in this field in China, and directly addresses branded companies in the aforementioned segments.
components – a meeting point for the supplier industry
In Hall N4, “components” was inspired by the trade fair of the
same name in Düsseldorf, which has taken place parallel to interpack since
2014. Exhibits from the fields of drive, control unit and sensor technology
await visitors, along with software, machine components as well as complete
automation systems and integrated automation solutions. This makes this
exhibition attractive for companies that offer packaging and process
technologies to customers in the eight key target groups from food to
industrial goods.
Premiere of special topics e-commerce logistics and
packaging as well as packaging printing
The special presentation on e-commerce logistics and packaging is
a brand new addition to swop 2019. Here, smart automation solutions including
robotics particularly take centre stage. In turn, the special presentation on
the complex issues surrounding packaging printing takes a closer look at trends
in the fields post press and converting, cardboard packaging, printing
equipment, pre-press and digital printing as well as corrugated materials
including paper, colours and consumables.
