The Ptak Warsaw Expo trade fair and congress center will host representatives of all branches of the packaging industry for the sixth time. The Warsaw Pack fair has been highly appreciated for years, as evidenced by many positive opinions of exhibitors who participated in previous editions of this event. Many comments indicate that the Fair of Packaging Technology and Packaging at Ptak Warsaw Expo is growing in strength every year, gathering more and more people willing to participate in the event.

Warsaw Pack is a platform that guarantees convenient and professional conditions for establishing business cooperation. During the 6th edition of the fair, dedicated thematic zones will facilitate faster access to specific stands, such as: Automation and Robotics Zone, E-Commerce Zone, Logistics and Warehousing Zone, Packaging Zone, Packaging Technology Zone, Labeling, Labeling and Printing Zone, or a special zone – conducive to trade talks.

The entire technological line will be presented on 40,000 m2 of exhibition space. Guests attending the event will be able to conduct a comprehensive market review.

The displayed products will also include: food, cosmetic, pharmaceutical and chemical packaging, as well as transport and industrial packaging.

Continuous development of the fair

Warsaw Pack is now a recognizable brand not only in Poland, but also in Europe. Both exhibitors and visitors are interested in participating in the event. As the interest grows, the expectations towards the organizer grow. Ptak Warsaw Expo in 2020 decided to allocate 40,000 m2 of exhibition space for the event, which is twice as much as in previous years. The dynamics of the development of the fair is perfectly reflected not only by the larger space, but also by the number of visitors, which is growing every year. In 2019, 9,000 guests visited the 3-day event, while the last edition of the fair was visited by almost 15,000 people. We believe that this year’s appetite for the fair has not diminished among the participants and we will once again be able to boast of a record attendance.

Excellent trading platform

On April 8-10, 2025, two fair events will take place at the Ptak Warsaw Expo. In addition to the International Fair of Packaging Technology and Packaging – Warsaw Pack, at the same time, the International Fair of Food Technologies – Food Tech Expo will be held. Events associating the packaging industry and food producers will be a unique opportunity to get to know a wide range of companies, whose offers and services will ensure multidirectional and comprehensive development of the company.

Safety first

PTAK Warsaw Expo meets the highest safety standards. We use above-standard measures to increase the level of sanitary safety. At the entrance to each event, there are disinfection booths with the possibility of automatic temperature measurement, health statements, we distribute free medical masks, we expanded the communication routes, we introduced an automatic entry and exit counter, and frequently touched surfaces are disinfected on a regular basis.

Despite the pandemic period, we safely carried out trade fairs, allowing us to strengthen many industries, conclude new business relationships and contract contracts.

The 5th edition of the Warsaw Pack packaging fair ended on March 5, 2020. During the 3 days of the event, the packaging industry, represented by Polish and foreign entrepreneurs, had the opportunity to conduct a complete review of the latest packaging machines, tools and techniques, as well as types of packaging, labels, automation and robotics , as well as logistics and e-commerce solutions. As every year, the event was accompanied by the Polish Chamber of Packaging.

The presence of leading exhibitors from the industry favored the premieres of products and services and the opportunity to learn about a wide range of types of packaging. During the event, food, cosmetic, pharmaceutical, chemical, transport and industrial packaging were presented. Participants also had the opportunity to see modern packaging and labeling machines, as well as a wide range of dedicated labels. The fair gathered a wide group of representatives of the packaging industry. Fewer than 15,000 guests appeared as visitors.

40,000 m2 of exhibition space has been allocated for the implementation of the event. It is two times more than last year. In view of the growing interest in the fair by representatives of the packaging sector and the dynamic development of this market, increasing the exhibition space was a necessary measure. Thanks to the huge space at Ptak Warsaw Expo’s disposal, the exhibitors could arrange their stands in an unlimited way. During the packaging fair in 2020, 148 machines and 623 packaging were presented.

During the 5th edition of Warsaw Pack, an interesting substantive program was also organized. For example: the conference “Modern packaging. Eco-transformation of packaging – vision 2030” co-organized by the Chamber and SIMP and organized by the Polish Chamber of Packaging, with the participation of Santander bank – The 1st Forum of Packaging Industry Entrepreneurs. An opportunity to gain a large portion of inspiration was also the conference entitled “Closed Circulation Packaging – Ergonomics and minimization versus environmental and cost effectiveness”, organized by Rekopol, as well as a lecture organized by Świat Druku entitled “How to fortify brandy? Innovative Packaging ”. Nearly 500 people took part in the substantive program.

There are no random people here. There are concrete people with specific questions who have a specific plan and come to us with this plan so that we can help to implement it. ” – Paweł Piątek, Manager of the Commercial Department, POLPAK

“Our first presence was quite a surprise for us due to the large number of potential customers, so we decided to come here this year and we are very pleased to participate.” – Piotr Kosik, Managing Director, Ulma Packaging

The packaging industry will meet for the 6th time at Ptak Warsaw Expo on April 8-10, 2025. We are looking forward to the next edition of the event!

The International International Fair of Packaging and Packaging Technology at Ptak Warsaw Expo has been highly appreciated by exhibitors for many years, as evidenced by many positive opinions of company representatives present during previous editions of this event. Warsaw Pack is a platform that guarantees convenient and professional conditions for establishing business cooperation. During the 6th edition of the fair, there will be dedicated thematic zones to facilitate faster access to specific stands, or a special zone – conducive to trade talks.

Warsaw Pack is primarily a contracting event targeted at business representatives. Due to the presence of representatives of numerous branches of the packaging industry and the Food Tech Expo, which is held at the same time, it is an excellent trading platform for representatives of both sectors. During the three days of the Warsaw Pack fair, exhibitors will present products and solutions – from machine tools and production systems for cutting and forming, through precise tools and components to automated production.

The fair is a great place to invite your potential customers base and present your products to them in a working mode. This is one of the few occasions when you can meet so many customers in such a short time.

The previous edition of the Warsaw Pack was visited by almost 15,000 guests, most of whom were professionals, who will certainly appreciate the opportunity to learn about the full specification of the product they are interested in, as well as the opportunity to observe machines and devices at work. The huge space dedicated to the organization of the event allows exhibitors unlimited possibilities of presenting their offer.

Before participating in the fair, plan the concept of your stand. Think about what machines are most important to you – it will allow you to fully use the space and arrange the equipment of the stand.

Once you have the plan, it’s time to move on to the stand equipment. Its most important elements are:

Branding – the first element that visitors look for at the stand is a logo or company name. With the use of banners or – to enhance the effect – an LED screen, on which you will display how your tools and machines work in the production process.

Lighting – one of the most important elements of the stand, which will allow you to fully display the latest products. The intelligent play of lights will definitely increase the attractiveness of your stand and product.

The floor – complements and emphasizes the aesthetics of your stand, which we can see in all trade fair centers around the world. Therefore, the cover of the stand area is obligatory at Ptak Warsaw Expo.

Power connection – imagine that you are about to get a new customer, but he needs to urgently use his phone, which is dead. Of course, you offer him a charger, but … you don’t have a connection at the stand. So, when asked if the electricity at the stand is important, we answer – of course!

A meeting place – the fair is tens of thousands of people and hundreds of attractions that generate a lot of noise. When planning your stand, remember about an elegant and well-equipped place to which you will invite potential contractors to make a deal.

The above few tips will surely help your company to achieve success at the fair. If you have questions and are looking for an idea for the implementation of your stand, browse our catalog and contact us – together we will create something special!

Attractions and activities

The stand must have substantive value, but in order to present it, visitors must be effectively gathered. The attractions you prepare will be of key importance here. Your brand ambassador presenting products, the possibility of active testing or awards for trade fair participants are just some of the ideas that will help distinguish your stand.

Also, do not forget about reliable human capital during fairs. Experts who go out to the client and attract him to the offer in an accessible way will be much more effective than one employee hidden in the depths of the exhibition.

Preparing new products is a great idea to involve and attract existing customers to the stand. We know from experience that all new products and premieres interest visitors the most. This is a great opportunity to refresh business relations with current partners and deepen cooperation.

Communication

All of the above elements make up the most important one – appropriate communication regarding the presence at the fair. As an organizer, we provide thousands of visitors and offer a wide range of pre-trade marketing collaboration using our channels. What we need to support you are announcements of attractions.

The fair is also a good place to invite the database of potential customers and present them face-to-face products. This is one of the few occasions when you can meet so many customers in such a short time. During the International Fair of Packaging and Packaging Technology, exhibitors can take advantage of the additional Hosted Buyers program. It is an effective initiative aimed at finding new business partners and developing companies abroad.

Shared success

A successful fair for our exhibitors means a sense of a job well done. We believe that this article will be useful for you and will allow both exhibitors and visitors to get the most benefit from participating in theWarsaw Pack. At each of the above stages, of course, we provide the necessary substantive support, and more details can be found in our “become an exhibitor” tab.
