Empack 2026: the entire packaging chain under one roof

On April 14, 15 and 16, 2026, the entire packaging chain will come together at Evenementenhal Gorinchem. Here you will meet the key players in the industry, see future-oriented packaging solutions, and stay up to date on the latest trends.

From materials and machines to packaging design and internal logistics: every link in the chain is represented at Empack. Connect with potential suppliers, experience live demos on the exhibition floor, and shake hands with familiar faces from the industry.
