The recent AUSPACK exhibition saw APPMA attract a slew of new industry members from the materials and equipment supply sector.

As the packaging and processing machinery industry’s peak association, APPMA fulfills an important role providing networking opportunities for its membership and advancing members’ business interests within the wider industry.

“AUSPACK 2022 provided a great opportunity for our team to re-engage on a face-to-face basis with all of our exhibiting members to learn more about these businesses as well as reminding them of the membership services and benefits,” said APPMA CEO Michael Moran. 

“It also provided the opportunity to introduce APPMA to a number of non-member exhibitors both during the pre-exhibition engagements as well as during the show.

“In our previous update we said to stay tuned for new member announcements; we are now pleased to officially welcome the following companies as new APPMA members: Automation & Packaging, Tapflo (Oceania), Industrial Dynamics, Pulford Air & Gas, HB-Technik, Select Equip, Detpak (Detmold Group), OFI Weigh & Inspection Solutions.”

This brings APPMA's total membership to 142 and counting.
