Product Details

The flexible packaging sector has been rapidly expanding for several years now, with stand-up pouches growing at a rate of 6.5% a year and U.S. flexible plastic pouches sales predicted to top $10 billion by the end of the decade, according to the Freedonia Group.

There was record attendance at Global Pouch West 2016 in Las Vegas where attendees learned about the explosive growth in pouches and why food, beverage, and household product manufacturers are making the switch from rigid to flexible packaging.

Global Pouch West features 1 ½ days of educational sessions, an exhibition reception, and numerous networking opportunities. It is where packaged goods manufacturers and suppliers meet to network and discover the latest trends, markets, and challenges in the flexible packaging market.
