Ceepackaging

The Amercian packaging specialist Pactiv presents two of its Slide-Rite® reclosable systems, which already succeeded in the United States, at FachPack (26th to 28th September at Nuremberg, Hall 4, Booth 215). Both the Ergonomic Slider and the S-Slider increase the reliability and provide a comfortable handling of the reclosure mechanism.

About 2 % of the product value in Germany is attributed to the packaging. The worldwide production volume of packaging supplies and machinery is estimated at some 400 billion EUR. Almost every third packaging machine sold comes from Germany. With a production volume of around 4.2 billion EUR, this segment of the German mechanical engineering industry occupies first place ahead of the USA, Japan and Italy. The packaging manufacturers also occupy a leading position in the world market. The industry shows the innovations that have made it the world leader at FachPack+PrintPack+LogIntern 2006 in the Exhibition Centre Nuremberg from 26-28 September. A good 1,200 exhibitors (2004: 1,157), who expect over 30,000 visitors (2004: 29,260), will ensure a convincing show.
