Proudly owned and presented by the Australian Packaging

and Processing Machinery Association (APPMA), AUSPACK

continues to surpass expectations year-on-year; not

only through the quality and number of visitors, but also

through the exhibitors. The exhibitor numbers have not

only increased over the last few shows, but we have

also continued to expand the quantity of international

companies looking for brand exposure in the Australasian

region. We are proud that AUSPACK is recognised on the

global calendar as one of the top packaging and processing

trade exhibitions.

Under the Packaging & Processing Week umbrella the

APPMA has also expanded the education and social

offerings during AUSPACK to allow further networking

and educational opportunities for the industry during

the four-days.

AUSPACK 2015 was rated by CEO Mr Earle roberts as the best show we have attended ever. The factors influencing his very positive position are the high numbers of visitors to the show but better still the calibre of the senior decision makers. Most of those we spoke to gave a positive view of the Australian manufacturing sector for the future, which in term holds a positive future for equipment suppliers.
