International forum in Poznań
Poznań will soon turn into an international forum for presenting the latest solutions and technologies in packaging and logistics. The International Packaging Technology and Logistics Exhibition TAROPAK will be held on the grounds of the Poznań International Fair on 15-18 September. It will celebrate its 35th anniversary this year.
Scope and themes of the show
TAROPAK is a specialist offer addressed to all those who are professionally involved in the broadly understood production of packaging, raw materials and machines, as well as warehousing and logistic activities.
This year, almost 800 exhibitors will present their offers on the area of 20,000 m2. The largest group of exhibitors includes companies that offer packing machines and devices and plastic packaging. Almost 100 exhibitors will present offers related to warehousing and in-house transport. It is worth emphasising the record number of foreign exhibitors participating in the exhibition in its 35-year history. There are currently over 35% of foreign exhibitors coming from 32 countries. The most numerously represented countries, alongside Poland, include Italy, Germany, France, Taiwan and Turkey.
