DÜSSELDORF, GERMANY — PMMI, the association for packaging and processing technologies, and interpack, the leading international trade fair for processing and packaging, have signed a Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) during interpack 2026, which is being held May 7-13 in Düsseldorf, Germany.

The MOU is designed to expand international engagement, strengthen connections between Europe and North America, and create new opportunities for companies across both markets. It also reinforces interpack’s role as a key global platform for North American companies looking to grow their international business.

“For many years, PMMI and interpack have maintained a close and trusted dialogue that we highly value,” said Thomas Dohse, director of interpack. “This agreement is a natural next step to further develop that exchange and expand international connectivity for the benefit of our shared customers.”

A major element of the agreement is the North American Pavilion at interpack 2029, which will be organized and managed by PMMI. The new pavilion will provide North American exhibitors with a central presence and greater visibility at the triennial event.

“PMMI is excited to have this opportunity to bring our members to this important industry event,” said Jim Pittas, president and CEO of PMMI. “We appreciate interpack’s willingness to work with PMMI to make this happen and expect this effort to be a major success for our members.”

With this partnership, interpack and PMMI are reinforcing their shared commitment to expand global exchange and advance sustainable solutions across the processing and packaging industries.
