PACK EXPO International is one of the largest packaging and processing exhibitions in the Americas, bringing together more than 2,700 exhibitors and professionals from over 40 vertical industries. The event provides bakery manufacturers with access to machinery, packaging systems, automation, processing technology and materials from suppliers across the global food industry.
For industrial bakeries, PACK EXPO International offers opportunities to explore equipment for mixing, forming, conveying, cooling, inspection, primary packaging, case packing, palletising and end-of-line automation. Live demonstrations across the show floor allow visitors to compare technologies and assess how new systems could improve efficiency, flexibility, product handling and line performance.
Bakery processing and packaging technology
Packaging is a major focus of PACK EXPO International, with exhibitors presenting machinery, materials and automation designed to address changing requirements around productivity, labour availability, sustainability and food safety. Bakery producers can also investigate technologies for robotics, digitalisation, quality control and integrated production lines.
Dedicated pavilions and more than 150 free educational sessions will provide further insight into emerging packaging and processing trends, operational challenges and new technologies.
Organised by PMMI, The Association for Packaging and Processing Technologies, PACK EXPO International takes place every two years and serves as a major meeting point for equipment manufacturers, food producers and packaging specialists. For bakery businesses looking to invest in processing or packaging equipment, compare suppliers or identify technologies for future production projects, the Chicago exhibition offers a broad overview of developments shaping modern bakery manufacturing.
