Two new floor shows
Key Takeaways
- Pack Expo Las Vegas 2025 will debut guided floor tours tailored to automation and sustainability, aimed at decision-makers and brand owners seeking curated insights.
- The show emphasizes key trends—automation, AI, sustainability, and workforce development—spanning over 1 million square feet and drawing 35,000 attendees.
- PMMI continues building long-term industry engagement, recognizing more than 100 companies from the original 1995 show and announcing five future Pack Expo events through 2027.
Curated experiences are being offered in the form of two new, guided show floor tours. The Pack Expo Discovery Tours, which will be sponsored by Formic, are geared toward first-time buyers and senior-level decision-makers in automation solutions, according to a press release (1). The Pack Expo Sustainability Tour is intended for consumer packaged goods brand owners and is sponsored by Anchor Packaging.
The Sustainability Tour follows on the heels of Sustainability Central, a show floor destination launched with the 2023 edition, which offers educational, expert-led sessions (1). Another feature, the Logistics Pavilion, was also created for the 2023 show in response to demand for logistics solutions.
“Pack Expo Las Vegas has always been more than a trade show—it’s where the future of packaging and processing takes shape,” Jim Pittas, PMMI president and CEO, said in the press release (1). “For 30 years, we’ve been proud to drive innovation, foster collaboration, and spotlight the technologies shaping tomorrow’s supply chains. As we look ahead, we remain focused on the forces transforming our industry: automation, AI [artificial intelligence], sustainability, and workforce development.”
1 million square feet of space
PMMI said Pack Expo Las Vegas 2025 is expected to draw 35,000 attendees, from more than 40 vertical markets, to a show space that spans in excess of 1 million net square feet.
“As the industry accelerates toward smarter, more sustainable operations, Pack Expo Las Vegas remains the one place where it all comes together—technology, insight, and community,” Laura Thompson, vice president, trade shows, PMMI, said in the release (1). “This year’s show reflects the momentum we’re seeing across the market, with record participation and unmatched opportunities to learn, connect, and grow.”
