Showcasing the latest developments in the processing and packaging industry

The PPMA Show returns to the NEC Birmingham this September, bigger and better than ever, with over 350 exhibitors showcasing more than 2,650 brands from the full spectrum of the industry.

The PPMA Show is the UK’s largest processing and packaging machinery exhibition, established over 37 years ago. Each September, leading companies gather to display the latest in processing and packaging machinery, robotics and industrial vision systems, as well as the latest innovations in materials, containers and packaging design.

The show is organised by the PPMA Group of Associations, which comprises the Processing and Packaging Machinery Association (PPMA), British Automation and Robot Association (BARA) and UK Industrial Vision Association (UKIVA). These three specialist trade associations serve over 550 member and affiliate member companies.

The show, taking place in Hall 5 from 26-28 September, will be a fantastic representation of this fast-growing industry, featuring food, beverage, pharmaceuticals, household products and toiletries, building materials and supplies, pet care, micro-brewery and distilleries, FMCG, as well as contract packers and more.

The exhibition is designed specifically for decision makers including CEOs, MDs, directors, managers, and other key staff members who play vital roles within their companies, including engineers, production specialists, designers, buyers, processing specialists, and project managers. It will offer a chance to gain new insights and knowledge that could benefit their businesses.

The event delivers an exciting opportunity for existing processing and packaging machinery users to keep abreast of the latest cutting-edge products and services. For those new to the industry, the show provides an excellent platform to learn and explore what this dynamic industry has to offer.

There is the added benefit for visitors of being able to take advantage of fantastic networking opportunities, live demonstrations, source new ideas and solutions, and meet with potential new suppliers and technical experts.

Richard Little, the PPMA Show director commented: “Between the 350+ companies exhibiting there are thousands of years of experience in packaging, processing and automation machinery. Visitors are encouraged to bring their problems and requirements to the show. There will be people in the show who know what to do and there will be plenty of machines to look at actually doing it.”

The best and brightest businesses of this industry will be eager to demonstrate to visitors how they can improve their businesses with the latest and greatest technologies.
