Carton packaging for beverages has enormous potential

Use of carton packaging for beverages continues to increase worldwide. And that is not surprising. Per capita sales of drinks in carton containers in China is currently at only about one fourth of the level of consumption of corresponding products in Germany.

A large number of companies (around 230) will be exhibiting at the second ProSweets Cologne from 29th January to 1st February 2007. Launched in 2006, the international supplier fair for the confectionery industry will once again be held in Hall 10.1 of the Cologne exhibition centre, adjacent to the International Sweets and Biscuits Fair (ISM).

ProSweets Cologne will once again have a separate entrance, and its even clearer segmentation will make it easier for the visitors to collect information and place orders. The fair will be divided into four areas: ingredients, process technology, packaging technology and packaging. It will be accompanied by a trade-specific supporting programme of events that provide exactly the information the visitors are looking for. ProSweets Cologne is organised by Koelnmesse, and its conceptual sponsors are the Association of the German Confectionery Industry (BDSI), Sweets Global Network (SG), the German Agricultural Society (DLG) and the Central College of the German Confectionery Industry (ZDS).
