The city's New York skyline, Eiffel Tower and Venetian waterways may only be imitations, but Pack Expo and IEFP promise to bring the real thing to food professionals looking for innovative solutions amid the Las Vegas kitsch. IEFP will focus on the latest processing technologies in virtually all segments of food, including fruits and vegetables, beverage, meat, bakery/snack, dairy and beverage. The Packaging Machinery Manufacturers Institute (PMMI), producer and sponsor of PACK EXPO, says its event will highlight the latest developments in packaging and converting machinery, materials, packages and containers, controls, software, components and robotics and design systems. Exhibitors represent the entire spectrum of industries, including food, beverage, pharmaceutical, material handling, converting and nutraceuticals.
