Packaging Innovations & Empack

Packaging Innovations & Empack – co-located with Contract Pack & Fulfilment, brings together the full packaging journey, from concept and design through to manufacturing, packing, and delivery.

Across three connected events, the show unites packaging designers, technologists, manufacturers, operations leads, and brand owners who are shaping what’s next for packaging in the UK and beyond.

For over 20 years, it’s been the meeting place where ideas turn into solutions – and where innovation meets practicality, sustainability, and scale.

We believe packaging is more than a container – it’s a powerful force for creativity, connection, and change.

Our purpose is to accelerate progress across the entire packaging value chain by connecting people, ideas, and technologies that make packaging smarter, cleaner, and more efficient.

Packaging Innovations is where the packaging community comes together to explore, discover, and connect. Over two days, you’ll meet suppliers pushing the boundaries in materials and design, see how sustainability is driving change, and hear from experts tackling policy, accessibility, and innovation.

Whether you’re a brand owner looking for packaging that stands out on the shelf, a designer seeking fresh inspiration, or a sustainability lead searching for practical solutions, Packaging Innovations gives you direct access to the people, products, and knowledge shaping the future of packaging.

Empack is where packaging technology comes to life. Over two days, you’ll discover the latest machinery, automation, and processing solutions that can transform your operations.

Whether you manage operations, engineering, or supply chain, Empack gives you direct access to live demonstrations, CPD-accredited learning, and practical solutions designed to improve efficiency, reduce costs, and future-proof your production.
