The successful trade fair duo drink

printing, processing, beverage, food and liquid food industry on some 129,000
square feet of exhibit space at the Bombay Convention & Exhibition Center
in Mumbai from November 6 - 8, 2012. This marks an exhibitor and exhibit space
increase of around 50% compared to the last staging in 2010.

Cama Group, COESIA India, Ehcolo A/S, GEA, Haffmans, Hinterkopf, KHS and Krones
as well as MultiPack Systems, Ronchi Mario Spa, Sidel, Siemens,
Theegarten-Pactec and Ziemann have already registered and announced new product
launches. The exhibitors will focus their activities on the requirements of the
Indian market and will showcase customized solutions and products. The exhibits
will be complemented by a Fair Forum with lectures given by the exhibitors and
a conference dealing with current industry issues.
In addition to an official joint German
participation with 16 companies at both trade fairs, International PackTech
India 2012 will also feature country group exhibits from France, Italy, Turkey
and Switzerland while drink technology India 2012 will include joint
presentations from Great Britain and China.
The organizers Messe München (drink
technology India) and Messe Düsseldorf (International PackTech India) together
with their Indian subsidiaries also anticipate an increase in visitor
participation. In 2010, the shows welcomed over 6,000 trade visitors. This
year, about 8,000 experts are expected to attend, including top-managers,
technicians, engineers and end-users from the middle-management.
India is still considered to be one of the
most attractive markets in the world. The middle class on the subcontinent is
expected to grow to 580 million people by 2025 – a predominantly young and
consumerist section of society. Every year, about 60% of the gross domestic
product is spent on private consumption. In spite of a slight weakening of the
growth forecasts, Indian consumers are the most optimistic worldwide and are
still in a buying mood. (Source: GTAI)

technology and processes are essential in order to meet the customers’ rising
expectations and drink technology India 2012 and International PackTech India
