A Talk On Topics The purpose of the meeting was to discuss topics of presentations at the PackAge Meet. Companies were keen on having subjects like sustainability, value added products & services, flexible packaging and innovations, which could help the attendees with new ideas and applications. The other areas of interest were caps & closures, aseptic packaging, barrier packaging, packaging design and biodegradable materials. Promotional Programs The core group meeting also discussed the when and whereabouts of the package meet and road shows. “We already have a good visitor base in North,” said Anil Arora, President, Print-Packaging.Com. “The Package meet at Baddi, Haridwar and Rudrapur would help us re-enforce our strength in this region,” he added. Commenting on the southern region, which contributes a nine percent to the total number of visitors at the show, he said, “South has been a weaker link for our event. We have lot of prospects out there and the PackAge Meet at Hyderabad, Bangalore and Chennai will help us explore those opportunities.” PackPlus 2009 has extended its reach to organised retail and supply chain. With the proposed net exhibitor space of about 9000 sq. metres, the event holds great prospects of having several new companies in the exhibitors' list next year. info@packplus.in
