HCM City (VNA) - The latest technologies, equipment and products in the printing and packaging industry will be on display at the 20th Vietnam International Printing and Packaging Industry Exhibition (Vietnam Print Pack 2022) to be held in Ho Chi Minh City from September 21 to 24.

Speaking at a press conference on September 13, Tu Luong, deputy director of the city's Department of Information and Communications, said the event would focus on technology trends and promote digital technology in the packaging and printing sector.

The annual four-day expo is expected to attract 135 exhibitors from 15 countries and territories, including Vietnam, China, Germany, Hong Kong (China), India, Indonesia, Italy, Japan, Malaysia, the Philippines, the Republic of Korea, Taiwan (China), Thailand, the UK and the US.

Covering an area of 8,500 square metres, the expo will feature 412 booths, displaying the latest printing machinery and accessories, inks, printing materials and supplements, knives, cutting disks, scorers, packaging machinery, raw materials and auxiliaries, and dosing, coding and marking systems.

Trade visitors will be able to meet hundreds of professionals in the packaging and printing sector during the exhibition.

The expo will also create a leading business exchange platform for digital printing technology.

The packaging and printing sector in Vietnam has seen impressive growth in recent years, thanks largely to high demand from processors and exporters, especially of food, he said.

Vietnamese packaging and printing enterprises should embrace digital transformation to upgrade their technologies to speed up recovery post pandemic, he said.

There will be a range of seminars and talks on digital transformation in the sector. A seminar on digital transformation in the printing industry will be attended by more than 300 domestic and foreign enterprises.
