The Dortmund event is the latest addition to Easyfairs' 43-strong family of packaging trade fairs.<\/p>\n<p>The trade fair will cover the entire value chain from industrial goods to packaging technology and consumer goods packaging. With Dortmund as an industrial and technology centre, the new event will not only open up North Rhine-Westphalia and northern Germany as a visitor catchment area, but also the Benelux countries. In North Rhine-Westphalia alone, industry generates over 20% of Germany's total gross value added. Due to the strong manufacturing sector, many important trading companies are present in the region, which, in the organiser's opinion, opens up extremely attractive exhibitor and visitor potential for EMPACK in Dortmund.<\/p>\n<blockquote>\n<figure id=\"attachment_1055\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-1055\" style=\"width: 300px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-1055 size-medium\" style=\"margin-right: 15px; float: left;\" title=\"Siegbert Hieber, Managing Director of Easyfairs Deutschland GmbH\" src=\"https:\/\/packaging-journal.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/04\/MuV_EMPACK_Siegbert_Hieber-300x298.jpg\" alt=\"MuV EMPACK Siegbert Hieber\" width=\"300\" height=\"298\" srcset=\"https:\/\/packaging-journal.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/04\/MuV_EMPACK_Siegbert_Hieber-300x298.jpg 300w, https:\/\/packaging-journal.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/04\/MuV_EMPACK_Siegbert_Hieber-100x100.jpg 100w, https:\/\/packaging-journal.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/04\/MuV_EMPACK_Siegbert_Hieber-600x597.jpg 600w, https:\/\/packaging-journal.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/04\/MuV_EMPACK_Siegbert_Hieber-150x150.jpg 150w, https:\/\/packaging-journal.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/04\/MuV_EMPACK_Siegbert_Hieber-768x764.jpg 768w, https:\/\/packaging-journal.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/04\/MuV_EMPACK_Siegbert_Hieber.jpg 772w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-1055\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Siegbert Hieber, Managing Director of Easyfairs Deutschland GmbH<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>\u201eEMPACK closes the gap for the entire region in terms of a regionally orientated <strong>Trade fair for the packaging industry<\/strong>\u201c, of which <strong>Siegbert Hieber<\/strong>, Managing Director of Easyfairs Deutschland GmbH, is convinced.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>The current booking situation supports this statement.
