Interpack 2026: our picks for food visitors

Headed for interpack 2026 and not sure where to start? Start with our unofficial preview guide for visitors. It highlights the sessions, stands, and technologies most worth prioritising in Düsseldorf.


IN Brief:

  • Our new interpack special highlights the stands, sessions, and themes most relevant to food businesses.
  • The preview focuses on 2D coding, inspection and QA, sustainable packaging, robotics, and line flexibility.
  • Domino, TNA Solutions, Hugo Beck, Tekpak, Mettler-Toledo, Minebea Intec, LEIBINGER, and Xaar all feature.

interpack 2026 will be busy, sprawling, and full of competing claims. Food businesses do not need another general preview. They need a clearer sense of what is worth their time once they reach Düsseldorf.

Our new interpack 2026 special brings together our highlights and picks from across the show, with the emphasis on the issues already shaping decisions on the factory floor. The preview looks at 2D coding, inspection and quality assurance, sustainable packaging, robotics, line flexibility, and the practical questions now attaching themselves to regulation, materials, and plant performance.

It also points readers towards the sessions worth making time for, including the SPOTLIGHT Forum, SAVE FOOD, and presentations from Domino, Xaar, and TNA, while highlighting the suppliers and technologies likely to attract serious attention across the week.
