Brussels [09/09/2025] – The Advanced Packaging Association (APA) is pleased to announce its participation in FACHPACK 2025, one of Europe’s leading trade fairs for packaging, processing, and technologies, taking place from September 23–25, 2025, at Messe Nuremberg, Germany.

As a key representative of the flexible packaging value chain, APA will present its latest initiatives and developments at its dedicated booth. The association will highlight science-based solutions that align with the EU’s Packaging and Packaging Waste Regulation (PPWR), including advancements in recyclable polyamide-based materials and circular packaging systems.

“FACHPACK is a vital platform for dialogue and collaboration across the packaging and processing industry,” said Carmen Roveda, Vice President of APA. “We look forward to engaging with stakeholders to drive forward the future of high-performance flexible packaging.”

APA warmly invites all professionals across the packaging value chain—including converters, brand owners, retailers, recyclers, and technology providers—to join us at FACHPACK and visit our booth 7-730 (to know more about our activities and explore collaborative opportunities).

Visitors to the APA booth can expect:

  • Live demonstrations of recyclable multilayer packaging solutions
  • Expert talks on regulatory trends and material innovation
  • Networking opportunities with APA members and industry leaders

APA’s presence at FACHPACK reflects its commitment to fostering transparency, and collaboration across the packaging value chain.
