Why this event matters
Event overview
PACK EXPO International 2026 is scheduled for 18–21 October 2026 at McCormick Place in Chicago, Illinois.

Official show information
Relevance to powder and bulk solids processing
Although PACK EXPO is broader than a specialist powder exhibition, it is commercially and technically relevant to companies that dose, fill, bag, convey, inspect or package dry products. Engineers in food, beverage, pharmaceutical, pet food, chemical and consumer-product manufacturing can compare complete line concepts and the interfaces between bulk storage, feeding, weighing, filling, sealing, secondary packaging, palletising and plant automation.
Useful engineering questions include dry-product line integration, contamination and dust-control considerations, accuracy at the dosing-to-packaging interface, changeover requirements, traceability and the effect of upstream material behaviour on package consistency.
Evidence and participation boundaries
Dates, venue and scope come from the organizer. A company may be shown as attending only after the 2026 organizer directory or an official company announcement confirms the edition. Hall and booth numbers require the same current evidence. Featured placement is a separate Laravel entitlement and is never inferred from inclusion in this event record.
