The Processing Zone Returns to PACK EXPO International
Popular on-floor destination will arm manufacturers for growth
According to a recent study released by PMMI, The Association for Packaging and Processing Technologies, 75 percent of manufacturers use robots at some point along their manufacturing line, including processing operations involving direct food contact. The report indicates that use of robotics has more than tripled in a number of industries in the past five years.
To meet processors’ increasing demand for automation and robotics, PMMI announces the return of The Processing Zone. The pavilion, located in Lakeside Upper Hall, will feature a wide range of processing technologies for manufacturing industries including baking and snack, beverage, dairy, meat and confectionery – as well as non-food sectors such as cosmetics and home and lawn care.
