Join the Danish Pavilion at Pack Expo International in Chicago

Be part of the Danish Pavilion at the largest trade show in the Americas dedicated to packaging for the food and healthcare industries.

In 2026, PACK EXPO International in Chicago will once again be the world’s largest and most influential trade fair for the packaging industry — drawing more than 45,000 visitors from across 40+ sectors and featuring 2,500 exhibitors presenting the latest solutions in packaging, processing, and automation.

The exhibition is a key meeting place for decision-makers from leading CPG companies, retailers, and industrial end-users throughout the Americas — all looking for technologies that can improve efficiency, enable smart automation, and support sustainability goals. For Danish companies delivering innovative solutions within packaging automation, material handling, and energy-efficient production, PACK EXPO offers direct access to a market where demand for reliable, future-proof technologies continues to grow.

WHY JOIN?

The Danish Pavilion at Pack Expo International 2026 offers a turnkey exhibition platform tailored to companies delivering automation, end-of-line packaging, processing, and material handling solutions. The pavilion will be fully constructed and ready for use one day before the show opens, enabling you to focus entirely on customer meetings and lead generation.

Participating as part of a national pavilion provides a practical and cost-efficient way to strengthen your visibility in the North American market. It supports access to relevant industry stakeholders and creates opportunities for networking and knowledge exchange with other Danish solution providers operating in the same field.

The pavilion is designed to balance a strong Danish identity with a clear focus on your individual company brand in the US. Your stand will feature full-scale wall graphics based on your own design files, including prominent logo placement at the front desk.
