The most important trade fair for the converting industry will take place from 11-13 March at Messe München. We are looking forward to an industry in transition!
Transformation and crisis resilience
If you were to send a visitor to the ICE Europe 2015 trade fair on a time travel 10 years into the future, they would be amazed. More than ever, the upcoming ICE Europe 2025 promises to be a ‘showcase’ of joint stands and company mergers. ‘Everything from a single source!’ seems to be the motto of the hour.
The range of topics covered will also be wider than ever this year: the converting industry has long since taken on a leading role in battery production, topics such as decorative films are on everyone’s lips – and speciality machines for niche applications are more in demand than ever. Fuel cells, paper packaging and bio films are further topics that are taking up more and more space.
The face of our industry is changing
All these trends make me confident that the converting industry will continue to hold its own in an age of multiple crises. The face of our industry is – once again – changing. In Munich, we will all be able to review its status quo!
