The show introduces two pavilions, presents targeted keynote sessions, and workforce development opportunities.
Guadalajara, Jalisco; April 29, 2025 — Momentum is building for EXPO PACK Guadalajara 2025 (June 10–12; Expo Guadalajara), the largest packaging and processing event in Latin America this year. Produced by PMMI, The Association for Packaging and Processing Technologies, the show now spans two expansive exhibit halls, covering over 18,000 net square meters – a testament to the industry’s escalating demand for innovation.
This year’s show debuts the Containers and Materials Pavilion and Digital Transformation Pavilion, expanding an already rich international lineup featuring national pavilions from Argentina, China, France, Italy, Spain, Taiwan, and Turkey, alongside the Association and PMMI Pavilions.
The Containers and Materials Pavilion explores next-generation packaging solutions that boost shelf impact, sustainability, brand identity, and functionality. It’s an essential stop for consumer packaging goods (CPG) companies seeking next-generation packaging and material solutions.
The Digital Transformation Pavilion navigates the technologies reshaping the industry – from AI, IIoT, and machine learning to cloud services, digital twins, and augmented reality. This forward-thinking hub where advanced technology meets the packaging and processing industry’s evolving digital needs is purpose-built for CPG companies on their digital transformation journey. The Pavilion delivers real-world solutions to drive efficiency, enhance connectivity, and provide actionable insights.
Digital transformation increasingly depends on AI tools like AI assistants, machine vision, predictive maintenance, digital twins, and connected worker platforms. According to a 2024 report from PMMI, The AI Advantage in Equipment: Boosting Performance and Bridging Skills Gap, AI boosts productivity through automation of time-consuming tasks; enhances machine performance and OEE; and overcomes skills gaps by assessing skills, personalizing training, and providing guidance. In addition to the Pavilion, attendees can learn more about this critical topic on June 12 during the keynote, Digital Transformation and Reimagining Packaging Professionals: What Does the Future Hold? featuring Hernán Braberman, partner & creative director at Tridimage.
EXPO PACK Guadalajara will also deliver a dynamic keynote on the latest trends in packaging and processing. The show kicks-off on June 10 with an unmissable keynote, Global Packaging Trends 2025, where PMMI and Euromonitor International unveil critical insights from their latest global report. Attendees will gain a front-row seat to understand the powerful forces – from regional shifts to changing consumer behaviors – that are driving innovation across the packaging sector. Keynotes occur each morning before the show floor opens and are free for registered attendees. For a complete keynote schedule, visit Find Sessions - EXPO PACK Guadalajara 2025.
