The International Forum of Food Industry and Packaging – IFFIP has successfully ended, resulting in new contacts and future development opportunities for the packaging industry in Ukraine.
The “Pack Expo” exhibition, held as part of IFFIP, took place on April 16–18 at the IEC (Kyiv). Despite challenging conditions and air raid alerts, the exhibition space was filled with an incredible business atmosphere, and our stand became a focal point for many visitors.
During three dynamic days, we presented the latest solutions in packaging materials and equipment, demonstrating innovative technologies that significantly enhance production efficiency. Our automated packaging systems attracted particular attention for their ability to optimize production and reduce labor costs, including Italian equipment by Robopac, Messersi, and Itatools.
PACK-TRADE is the official integrator of KUKA Robotics in Ukraine, which confirms our high level of technical expertise and partnership. During the exhibition, we proudly represented the KUKA brand, presenting cutting-edge robotics solutions. This was a great opportunity to demonstrate innovative automation capabilities to Ukrainian enterprises.
There was also consistently high interest in agricultural materials such as baler twine, agro stretch film, bale covers, silage film, and aero fabric. PACK-TRADE always has something to offer to representatives of the agricultural sector — including field-tested options from such brands as Edilfloor, JUTA, Rani, Silotite, Silozet, RaldusPlast, and others. The high quality of stretch film from Polish producers remains evident, with brands like KRAM — whose products were also presented at our stand — maintaining strong industry recognition.
Since packaging technologies are closely linked to warehouse processes, we traditionally presented warehouse equipment from Noblelift — one of the world leaders in material handling equipment. Solutions for efficient logistics and internal warehouse optimization — such as hydraulic pallet trucks, stackers, and reach trucks — met modern business needs. Visitors had the opportunity to explore the most popular models and receive professional consultations on implementing this equipment at their enterprises.
In addition to automation solutions, visitors discovered cost-effective leasing opportunities for packaging equipment — an option offered by Paсk-Trade's partner, A.TOM Finance.
Once again, “Pack Expo” proved itself not just as an exhibition, but as a powerful platform for building vital business connections between equipment manufacturers and potential clients. We are actively working on contracts with new partners we met at the event and planning to implement our innovative solutions throughout Ukraine.
We express our sincere gratitude to every visitor for the productive dialogue and valuable exchange of ideas. We look forward to a long-term and collaborative partnership for mutual benefit!
