A Walk Through ProMach Metroplex

January 3, 2020

ProMach has attended Pack Expo for many years. In fact, this was our V.P. of Marketing’s 18th year attending Pack Expo with ProMach! That’s a lot of shows, and while we’ve had success at a great number of them, this past show in Las Vegas was quite unforgettable. In fact, it was a record-breaking year, with over 30,000 people descending on the Las Vegas convention center on Sunday, September 22nd to experience the latest technology and innovation in the packaging industry. Attendees come to see presentations on the state of the packaging industry and market trends, exhibitors on the show floor showcasing their newest technology for the packaging industry, and machines that they hope meet all of their packaging needs.

Though, for most, the likelier first go-to option to keep up with demand is running the packaging line machines for lengthier amounts of time or running them at a higher speed – an easy resolution in theory.
