  • The Manufacturing Forum

    The brand new Manufacturing Forum will be back in 2012 with a whole new seminar track for the PPMA Show.

    Over three days visitors and exhibitors had the chance to hear from key speakers and leaders in the industry on some of the hottest topics in the processing and packaging world. The programme covered the latest developments for the industry and visitors had the opportunity to join in the lively debate.

    Many of the presentations will be available online for those of you who were unable to attend or want to share these valuable insights with your colleagues.

  • The Ones to Watch

    Our search for the rising stars of the processing and packaging machinery industry is over for 2011. Nicola Swann from Videojet Technologies was named winner at the PPMA Show's Ones to Watch awards, which recognised promising under 35 years olds who have made a real impression on the packaging and processing machinery industry.

    As Marketing Manager for the UK and Ireland, Nicola, 29, is credited with revolutionising Videojet Technologies' profile within the industry. New business enquiries through the website have risen by more than 300%, making her one of the company's most valuable assets.

    Chris Buxton, CEO of the PPMA and one of the judges for the award said: “We have such a wealth of young talent across the packaging and processing machinery industry and so it's only right that we celebrate the contribution they make. I congratulate Nicola and wish her every success in her future career."

    Sabine Fiehl from Busch UK and Greg Austin from Endoline Machinery Ltd also collected awards for Silver and Bronze.

Testimonials

  • “This is the third time for us at the PPMA Show. We keep coming back to the show because of its high quality of customers. We’ve made a few deals already which is promising, but exhibiting at a trade show is all about the long term investment; we may not hear from some of these customers for several months or even years, but they do come back.”
    Henk vd Ven, Marketing Manager, Lantech
  • "We’ve exhibited at various exhibitions but I knew that if we improved our stand, we could do very well at the PPMA Show this year. On the first day alone we generated over 100 good leads. This is the best exhibition so far that we’ve experienced as a company and we’ve already booked our stand for next year!”
    Colin Griffiths, Chairman, Golden Valley Pallet Wrap Specialists
  • "We had an extremely successful three days at the PPMA Show this year. The visitors were of a high quality and spot on in terms of target for us - plus there was a constant stream of them to our stand which is always encouraging. Importantly for us, there was a lot of interest in our new Omega multi-head weigher so we will be busy following-up all the leads that we secured over the next few weeks. All in all, an impressive show."
    Neil Fowell, Managing Director, Yamato Scale Dataweigh
  • “The show not only enables us to maintain our presence in the industry, but it also helps us to generate new leads and business.”
