Food & Beverage Packaging Professionals: Join the Show Walk at the Sino-Pack/PACKINNO
The packaging industry is at an inflection point. Rising costs, stricter regulations, and growing consumer demand for sustainability are forcing food and beverage brands to rethink every aspect of their packaging strategy.
These challenges—and the solutions to overcome them—will take center stage at the 32nd China International Exhibition on Packaging Machinery and Materials (Sino-Pack 2026) and the China (Guangzhou) International Exhibition on Packaging Products (PACKINNO 2026) (collectively referred to as Sino-Pack/PACKINNO), to be held from March 4 to 6, 2026, at Area B, China Import and Export Fair Complex, Guangzhou. As one of the largest professional packaging exhibitions in the industry, this edition is expected to present a wide range of solutions addressing current challenges in food and beverage packaging production.
I. One-Stop Food & Beverage Packaging Solutions, Precisely Tailored to Every Sub-Segment
This edition places the food and beverage industry at its core, systematically presenting complete packaging solutions—from production lines to end-consumer touchpoints—for various sub-categories such as snack foods, fresh prepared foods, grains/oils/condiments, and beverages.
• In snack foods, the focus is on freshness-locking technologies and fun, engaging packaging designs.
• For fresh prepared foods, emphasis is on full-chain smart manufacturing and functional materials to strengthen product quality control and safety.
• In grains, oils, and condiments, the spotlight is on efficient filling technologies combined with eco-friendly materials, balancing practicality and sustainability.
• For beverages, cutting-edge smart manufacturing technologies and full-category packaging solutions are highlighted to enable more efficient flexible production.
II. Six Thematic Core Visitor Routes – Systematically Addressing Key Pain Points in Food & Beverage Packaging
In 2026, the exhibition introduces the innovative “Sino-Pack/PACKINNO Show Walk” themed visitor routes, offering efficient pathways for food and beverage packaging exploration and direct access to future trends:
Route 1: Food Packaging Machinery
Showcasing innovative, efficient, and energy-saving food packaging technologies, including flexible changeover, flexible production, and digital-intelligent solutions. Examples: YUDONG AUTOMATION’s fully automatic pouch-feeding machine supports multiple pouch types and materials, with speeds of 50–70 bags/min. GUANGDONG HAOMINGDA’s high-speed vertical packaging machine integrates automatic weighing, printing, and inflation, achieving 100–140 bags/min with auto-correction and alarm functions. BAOPACK’s VG42A high-speed packaging machine combines bag-making, filling, sealing, printing, punching, and counting, suitable for pillow bags and stand-up pouches. XIAMEN YUSHENG’s powder packaging machine automates the full process from bag-making to counting at 30–70 bags/min. GUANGZHOU MARCHI’s bottom-fill powder packaging machine reduces dust and drop with bottom filling, compatible with various materials, easy to clean, and simple to operate.
Route 2: Liquid Packaging Solutions
Showcasing end-to-end technologies from bottle-making to case packing, meeting premium demands in beverages and dairy. Examples: JIANGSU TOM’s inline filling and capping integrated machine flexibly handles 50–1000ml at 4,000–7,200 bottles/hour. SHENZHEN HELITAI’s circulation filling machine offers one-key adjustment, fast changeover, high precision, and suits premium beverages, dairy, and personal care products. GUANGZHOU HEYI’s 12-lane sachet production line ensures precise metering, anti-drip, strong sealing, high speed, and compact footprint. BEIJING Y.C.T.D.’s heat-shrink film packer enables high-speed inline bottle separation with efficient, energy-saving shrink ovens for enhanced stability.
Route 3: Weighing, Testing, Coding & Marking
Integrating high-precision weighing, foreign object detection, AI vision inspection, and digital traceability to build a strong food safety defense. Examples: METTLER-TOLEDO’s C16+ automatic checkweigher optimized for dry product flow packaging. TECHIK INSTRUMENT (SHANGHAI)’s TDI dual-energy detector combines intelligent deep learning for shape and material dual recognition, accurately detecting various foreign objects. GUANGDONG KENWEI’s second-generation aluminum foil metal detector effectively shields aluminum film interference and detects all metal contaminants across various packaging states.
Route 4: Food Flexible Packaging
Concentrating on high-barrier, biodegradable, active/intelligent freshness-preserving materials, along with user-friendly designs like easy-tear openings and precise metering. Examples: DQ PACK CHINA’s triple-suction nozzle pouch designed for liquid candies—three nozzles prevent cross-contamination, high-barrier materials lock in freshness, and supports custom printing. HUASHUO (JIANGSU) NEW MATERIAL’s high-barrier film professionally addresses freshness and anti-browning issues, widely used in ambient packaging for prepared dishes and snacks.
Route 5: Catering & Takeaway Packaging
Showcasing fast-changeover, automated equipment, and full-range green packaging materials, focusing on convenience and safety innovations. Examples: SHITULI PACKAGING’s 117 cup series—100% virgin material, high transparency, anti-fog, lightweight, and durable for various chilled foods. PAPKOT (SHENZHEN) NEW MATERIALS’ mineral-coated paper cup replaces traditional PE coating with natural mineral coating for high barrier, reliable heat-sealing, and greater environmental friendliness.
Route 6: Premium Box Packaging
Combining lightweight design, high-end materials, and personalization to create high-conversion gift packaging that elevates brand value. Examples: GUANGDONG SHUANGCHANGSHENG’s easy-open paper can with composite structure, food-grade aluminum foil inner wall, sealing over 50 kPa, and options for full aluminum easy-open lid or aluminum foil tear-off lid. GUANGDONG ZHONGRUI’s double-layer easy-tear lid paper can feature patented dual-layer film for strong sealing and extended shelf life, with an easy-tear membrane and a dispensing hole underneath for precise use.
III. Gathering Leading Brands and Cutting-Edge Insights to Build the Industry Ecosystem
Past editions have consistently attracted hundreds of well-known end-user brands to send delegations, including Want Want, Hsu Fu Chi Foods, Yili, Uni-President, C’estbon, Nestlé, Coca-Cola, Haidilao, Luckin Coffee, and Chagee, making it one of the key platforms for suppliers and major market decision-makers to engage directly, discuss needs, and forge potential partnerships.
