FACHPACK 2021
New trade fair concept provides planning certainty
“To be able to react flexibly and at short notice to the pandemic situation, we have devised a dual-track event concept that will allow our customers and us to reliably plan ahead for FACHPACK 2021,” explains Heike Slotta, executive director at NürnbergMesse.
Dual-track trade fair concept
Specifically, the dual-track trade fair concept for FACHPACK will take the following form: Track 1 will focus on FACHPACK 2021 as a physical event with a well-considered hygiene concept and a new digital add-on, so that visitors affected by travel restrictions can still take part in. If necessary due to the pandemic situation, the organisers will switch to Track 2 and offer the packaging sector a purely digital event with new and exciting features. “This means that we are prepared for all eventualities and can guarantee that the packaging community will be able to have its much longed-for gathering at the end of September,” Slotta continues.The preparations for the trade fair are in full swing. The FACHPACK team is currently preparing for the physical event in the usual way, i.e., planning the configuration of the exhibition halls with the 860 companies currently registered, creating an attractive supporting programme and developing a comprehensive hygiene concept that will allow exhibitors and visitors to participate safely in the event.
