The AAPEX 2015 New Packaging Showcase will spotlight the latest innovative, eco-friendly and easy-to-merchandise designs geared to help attendees stay ahead of the curve and ultimately sell more products. AAPEX will take place on Nov. 3-5, at the Sands Expo in Las Vegas, with AAPEXedu sessions starting on Nov. 2.
Entries will be displayed in six categories: economics, environmental impact, innovation, marketing, performance and protection. The Association for Packaging and Processing Technologies (PMMI), a trade association made up of more than 700 member companies that manufacture packaging, processing and packaging-related converting machinery in the United States, Canada and Mexico, will judge this year’s entries. Awards will be presented for the Best New Packaging in each category.
All entries will be on display in the New Packaging Showcase at the Sands Expo, as well as on the AAPEX website and AAPEX Mobile App. Entries also will be included in the 2015 Product Plus magazine that will be available in a printed format at AAPEX, and in a digital format after the event.
Exhibitors interested in submitting an entry in the New Packaging Showcase should contact AAPEX Event Management: Chris Kalousek at 708-226-1300, or by email at [email protected]. Entries also may be submitted using the AAPEX website. Entries are due on Friday, Aug. 28, 2015.
