Shaping the Future of Sustainable, Smart, and Innovative Packaging
- The Leopardstown Pavilion, Dublin, Ireland
- June 24, 2027
Packedge brings together manufacturers, suppliers, brands and industry leaders to explore the next generation of packaging solutions. It is a practical, decision-maker-led platform to discover approaches that enhance performance, reduce waste and meet evolving consumer and regulatory demands, including PPWR and EPR.
The programme blends case-led talks with a curated exhibition so teams can compare options across areas such as breakthrough material science and smarter substrates, structural design and prototyping, printing, labelling and visual inspection technologies, and smart automation for forming, filling, sealing and downstream control. Circularity and end-of-life, smart and connected packaging, and supply chain and logistics are also in scope.

Why Attend The Packedge Conference & Exhibition?
Packaging is no longer just a container. It is a driver of brand value, sustainability and innovation. At Packedge you will gain fresh perspectives, see breakthrough solutions in action and connect with partners who can help future-proof your business.
For buyers and brands: build supplier shortlists, road test ideas and cut risk and cost. Get PPWR and EPR ready across design for recycling, recycled content, labelling, QR codes and reporting. Compare materials, machinery, automation, labelling and coding, and visual inspection side by side, then leave with a clear set of next steps.
For vendors: meet decision makers with live projects, validate use cases and build pipeline in one focused day. Demonstrate how your solutions improve performance, reduce waste and support compliance, from substrates and print to inspection, serialisation and full line efficiency.
Everything at Packedge is designed to help teams act with confidence: sharper specifications, faster trials, better partners and measurable outcomes.
