A pandemic strikes unexpectedly

The disruption caught the industry off guard, yet it made face-to-face communication and cooperation between companies especially valuable. As the industry recovers and gains momentum, at this 'daybreak' moment, the year's culminating processing and packaging joint exhibition, hosted by Shanghai UBM Sinoexpo International Exhibition Co., Ltd., brought together industry strength and presented to the world the vitality and development potential of China's processing and packaging industry and market.

The show covered packaging machinery, food processing, liquid processing, weighing and metering equipment, packaging materials and containers, and label printing technology, as well as industrial robots, warehousing and logistics, and quality inspection equipment. Through a processing and packaging 'grand slam', it connected the processing and packaging links of food, beverage, dairy, personal care, FMCG, pharmaceutical, health and electronics industries in a one-stop manner.

The event brought together many well-known processing and packaging companies. Industry leaders and emerging players showcased leading products, equipment, services and solutions, including food processing equipment, automated packaging production lines, overall integration of packaging production lines, packaging industrial robots, sealing machines, vacuum packaging machines, aseptic packaging machines, metering and filling, filling machinery, weighing, product packaging inspection, labels and flexible packaging, smart logistics equipment and systems, and packaging materials and products. These solutions help manufacturers reduce energy consumption, improve production efficiency and stability, save factory space and cut labor costs, while effectively connecting upstream and downstream players, exploring new partners, winning orders and opening markets.
