A REVISED AND UPDATED 2026 OFFERING FOR GREATER CLARITY

To provide an all-encompassing vision of today and tomorrow’s solutions, the show’s offering is arranged into five sections for easier identification while reflecting the industry’s cross-disciplinarity. The exhibition’s four longstanding sectors have been named for improved clarity: Packaging & Materials, Design & Printing, Filling/Packing Machines & Solutions, Intralogistics & Transport (a section dedicated to throughput, automation and operational performance).

Furthermore, a new exhibition zone is being created with Re-Generation. It examines packaging as a vector of transmission and sustainability for future generations.

Each of these sectors will showcase innovations addressing major issues: industrial performance, reducing the environmental footprint, automation, process digitalisation and design appeal.

IMMERSIVE FEATURE AREAS TO DECIPHER THE TRENDS

True to its creative DNA, ALLFORPACK EMBALLAGE PARIS will lay on two feature spaces illustrating the evolving face of the sector and inviting guests to think deeper about the role of packaging in a changing world.

• Hack a Pack, when packaging breaks with the status quo to open up new possibilities. This area will highlight disruptive innovations and creative approaches that are redefining consumer uses, formats and experiences. Start-ups, designers and brands will present projects exploring the emotional and experiential function of packaging, combining technology, design and sustainability.
• Matters Matter, When packaging raw materials reinvent the experience. A space for reflection and discussion about materials – plastic, paper and cardboard, metal, glass, not to mention alternative materials – it will offer a comprehensive overview of the innovations, complementarities and challenges associated with each of them. As showcases for experimentation, these spaces aim to boost inspiration and stimulate implementation.

BRAND NEW FEATURES AND CONTENT TO INSPIRE, DECODE AND ACCELERATE ALLFORPACK EMBALLAGE PARIS 2026

is stepping up its special features offering with a programme of varied and unprecedented content designed to provide pertinent and inspiring insights through the prism of the sector’s key themes and industry-specific issues. In this perspective, the show is launching the annual packaging barometer, to take the pulse of the market by comparing the views of consumers, industries and brands. It is also launching Out-of-the-Box, which will perpetuate the show’s expertise all year long through regular webinars, interviews with decision makers and experts, experience feedback and best practices.

At the heart of the event, the Paris Talks will offer a comprehensive and multi-format series of speaking opportunities built around three key themes (Reinvent – Regenerate - Reach) and handpicked content for each industry, to support professionals in the front line facing the big challenges of the times. Finally, the ALLFORPACK INNOVATION Awards are shifting up a gear to highlight the most innovative and promising approaches to cater to the needs of men and women and of the planet.

MORE BUSINESS, MORE SHARING, AN EXPERIENCE OPTIMISED OVER THREE DAYS… AND BEYOND ALLFORPACK EMBALLAGE PARIS 2026

is also reinforcing the measures aimed at maximising the show’s value to professionals: a Business+ programme dedicated to the targeted recruitment of strategic visitors, a Business Meetings service to arrange and prepare appointments ahead of the show, a Press Day in September, promoting exchange between exhibitors and the media, and moments of conviviality conducive to synergies and lasting collaboration.

To simplify the experience, visitors will be able to use a special webapp and visitor trails customised for each user industry (food industry, drinks and liquids, beauty and hygiene, health and pharma, retail, ecommerce, takeaways, textiles, electronics, capital goods, etc.). Finally, the Café de l’Emballage will be another place to meet up visitors and network. Visitors will have a purpose-designed space where they can relax of work and maximise opportunities for new encounters and dialogue.

"ALLFORPACK EMBALLAGE PARIS 2026 is a new milestone in the ongoing history of the show. With a new identity, a redesigned format and an unequivocal promise with Unbox your potential, we pursue a clear aim: offer the entire packaging industry a space for connections, solutions and decisions to make packaging a strategic lever for lasting competitivity and transformation throughout its lifecycle,” said Chantal De Lamotte, Exhibition Director of ALLFORPACK EMBALLAGE PARIS.
