Live machine demonstrations will run several times daily on the W&H stand (Hall 15, Booth A41) which spans more than 1,000 m2 at drupa2016 in Düsseldorf.

“As is customary for W&H, we will unveil our newest technologies at drupa where visitors from all over the world can have a close-up view,” says Dr. Jürgen Vutz, chairman of W&H.

At this year’s tradeshows, W&H is focusing on the concept of Packaging 4.0, the company’s vision of Industry 4.0 applied to the production of packaging.

“We will show how intelligent machines, integrated processes and intuitive handling are already increasing efficiency during production and bringing customers substantial added value,” adds Vutz.

In addition to the booth at drupa, W&H will simultaneously host an in-house Expo with further machine demonstrations in its new 3000 m2 technology centre in Lengerich.
