Preparations for Fachpack 2022 in full swing

There is still more than six months to go until September, but preparations for this year's Fachpack are already in full swing. The motto of the 2022 edition is „Transition in Packaging“, reflecting the current transformation of the entire industry. The trade fair will take place from 27 to 29 September at the exhibition centre in Nuremberg, but will also be held online in parallel in the form of the digital extension myFachpack.

There is still more than six months to go until September, but preparations for this year's Fachpack are already in full swing. The motto of the 2022 edition is „Transition in Packaging“, reflecting the current transformation of the entire industry. The trade fair will take place from 27 to 29 September at the exhibition centre in Nuremberg, but will also be held online in parallel in the form of the digital extension myFachpack.

„We are already in full swing again planning the exhibitors' stands in the halls and putting together a programme with exciting topics and speakers. Our customers will be delighted by the variety of innovations and inspirations as well as the opportunity for personal dialogue„, says Phillip Blass, Director Fachpack, NurembergFair.

„The number of registrations is good. We are particularly pleased that well-known companies such as Bluhm Systeme, Heidelberger Druckmaschinen, Mondi, Multivac, Packaging Valley, Prodinger, SSI Schäfer and many more are once again taking part. The last Specialist pack in September 2021 has shown, that a highly successful trade fair can take place even under the most difficult pandemic conditions. And that the hygiene concept is effective,“ continues Blass.

Packaging industry in upheaval

The packaging industry is undergoing radical change. Sustainability, digitalisation, e-commerce and much more are fundamentally changing the packaging business. And the pandemic has accelerated the process. The new guiding theme expresses this change that is currently taking place. „We deliberately chose not to use the term transformation, which is currently so often used,“ explains Heike Slotta, Executive Director Exhibitions, NürnbergMesse. She refers to the trend researcher Harry Gatterer, Managing Director of the Zukunftsinstitut, who writes: „Transformations thrive on transitions“.

This means that a strategy of many small steps and transitions is needed to master major upheavals. This is because most people lack the courage to take a big leap in transformation with an abstract goal for the future. At Fachpack 2022, many small and large examples of these transitions will be on display and stories of new beginnings will be heard - at the trade fair stands, in the lecture forums and at the special show.
