Propak Vietnam 2015 will showcase many latest technologies and solutions from around the globe to serve the expanding Vietnamese food, drink and pharmaceutical processing and packaging industry.

The exhibition will focus on four main parts – equipment and machinery, packaging materials and accessories, services, quality, and training.

BT Tee, deputy chief of Singapore Exhibition Services' Vietnam representative office – the event organiser together with the VCCI Exhibition Services Co Ltd – said international manufacturers and exporters are making Vietnam a processing hub, which in turn has attracted many international exhibitors seeking to support both new and established companies in this industry.

Notably, the exhibition has attracted the seven biggest technology exporting countries and territories in the field of packaging equipment – Germany, the Republic of Korea, Italy, Japan, Thailand, and Singapore.

Food safety, green packaging and eco-manufacturing, some burning issues in Vietnam currently, will be the main focus of seminars at Propak Vietnam 2015.
