Sustainability in Packaging Europe will return to Barcelona on 8-10 October 2024 for the ninth time. The 2023 event saw over 600 packaging innovators join us, and next year's event promises to be even bigger and better. As the only event to focus solely on sustainability in packaging and as Europe's largest sustainable packaging event, this is not to be missed.
2024 is featuring 100 packaging industry experts, and once again providing delegates with a full 360 degree perspective on how companies have achieved circularity. Stakeholders from across the industry will discuss their challenges and successes of achieving circularity for packaging, providing practical examples to help drive the industry forward.
Described as the 'do not miss packaging sustainability event in Europe' by Nestlé and as an 'excellent opportunity to focus on the strategic challenges of packaging sustainability with experts from all parts of the supply chain' by Mondelez International - this event is a must-attend for all those working in the industry.
