HARISH PENUMARTHI
T
he 12th edition of pro-
cessing and packag-
ing exhibition in India,
pacprocess & food pex In-
dia 2019, organized by Messe
Dusseldorf commences to-
day. This is the 2nd edition in
New Delhi in conjunction with
drink technology India, organ-
ized by Messe Munchen India.
pacprocess and food pex India
are members of the interpack
alliance that addresses target
groups of food, beverages, con-
fectionary and baked goods,
among others. interpack is
the focal point for all industry
trends and innovations and
brings together leading minds
in the industry.
Together, these co-located
events have attracted over 200
exhibitors participating from
more than 10 countries, with
India being the prominent one,
including China, France, Ko-
rea, Japan, Germany, Spain, It-
aly, and Turkey. The event pre-
sents technologies from food,
beverage, pharma, confection-
ary and bakery segments.
LIMITATIONS IN THE INDUSTRY
GROWTH PATH
Lately, there have been certain
limitations in the growth path
in the industry. Certain con-
trol measures from the govern-
ment specifies banning single-
use plastic. Overuse of paper
too isn’t favorable to the envi-
ronment.
“We do agree with practic-
es and products encouraging
the environment. Therefore,
in my opinion, despite all these
arrangements, the industry
has found newer innovations
to comply with such standards.
The event will feature an in-
novative gamut of recyclable
products that will make the
show most anticipated,” says
Thomas Schlitt, managing di-
rector of Messe Dusseldorf In-
dia.
TRANSFORMATION OF THE
PACKAGING INDUSTRY
Due to shift in focus towards re-
sponsible practices, the pack-
aging industry is going through
a revolutionary transforma-
tion. It is not only innovating
Technology - holistic system based developed of material, process
and concept – Neha Parashar, Cargill
with environment-friendly al-
ternatives for packaging but
also more sustainable manu-
facturing technologies and pro-
cesses.
“The event is an endeavor
to make this industry main-
stream and focus on the crucial
role it has to play in the chang-
ing scenario. The Fast Mov-
ing Consumer Goods (FMCG)
packaging market is estimated
to grow at a CAGR of about
4.2% over the forecast period
2019-2024. Increasing demand
from the eCommerce indus-
try is also creating new market
avenues for FMCG packaging.
This sector’s growth is attribut-
ed to rising demand for protec-
tive and convenient packaging
for delivering products of all
sizes. With the kind of innova-
tions that are happening across
the globe, we’re optimistic
about the positive impact the
industry can generate,” Schlitt
adds. Messe Dusseldorf India
anticipates around 10,000 plus
visitors in the three days of the
exhibition.
Few of the many brand
owners that are expected
to attend the show are Nes-
tle, Dabur, Marico, Mankind,
Hamdard, Pidilite, and Sam-
sung. Bring one of the promi-
nent platforms in the industry,
amidst the changing scenar-
io in the packaging industry,
Messe Dusseldorf India expects
all leading FMCG and pharma
brands in the market to attend
the show.
“As an integral part of this
most stimulating yet grow-
ing industry like packaging,
pacprocess & food pex India
will offer the much-needed
impetus in terms of path-
breaking packaging solutions,
products, technology and ser-
vices. Alongside, it will act as
the most effective platform to
share views, educate the indus-
try and to foster rewarding alli-
ances,” Schlitt concludes.
