Taking place from 27 to 30 May 2025 at Fiera Milano-Rho in Milan, Italy, the exhibition will cover eight halls, each focusing on different target markets:

The event will highlight solutions and materials for processing and packaging, with previews of new technologies from around the world. The programme includes conferences and industry trend analyses, an international event dedicated to pasta, the Worldstar Packaging Awards, and other activities. Attendees who pre-register in February will receive free admission, with the ticket also granting access to Pharmintech by IPACK-IMA and the Innovation Alliance events, including GreenPlast, Print4All, and Intralogistica Italia.
