easyFairs® PACKAGING IRELAND 2010

IRISH PACKAGING DIRECTORY - easyFairs® PACKAGING IRELAND SHOW GUIDE

TIME & COST-EFFECTIVE TRADE SHOWS

Welcome To easyFairs® PACKAGING IRELAND 2010 Hello, and welcome to the second easyFairs® PACKAGING IRELAND show.

Last year’s debut show was a real success. Almost 1,000 brand managers, product developers and packaging technologists, from brands such as Coca-Cola Ireland, Kerry Foods, Diageo and Microsoft attended, and this year’s visitor figures are expected to be even higher.

Once again, we’ve brought together a wealth of exhibitors across the packaging spectrum – including many of the sector’s leading names – from design consultancies through to suppliers showing new materials, advances in sustainable packaging, and machinery to help companies package products quicker and more efficiently.

We will be playing host to the very latest developments in packaging, with many products being displayed and demonstrated for the very first time in Ireland.

In addition to a wide range of packaging companies on show, we’ve also compiled a comprehensive learnShops™ educational programme that features seminars being delivered by some of the country’s most influential packaging professionals and brand specialists.

During the two days, our show partner, Repak, will also be offering free one-toone consultations with its technologists who will be advising on innovative ways to cut down on packaging. Repak is a not for profit organisation and its ‘producer responsibility scheme for used packaging’, has over 2,200 members, covering 60% of the packaging industry. We’re proud to have them on board and I’m delighted they’re playing such a central role in this show.

Along with our 120 exhibitors and the free-to-attend learnShops™ and Repak consultations, easyFairs® PACKAGING IRELAND will also deliver plenty of inspiration and learning. Lion’s Lair – a Dragons’ Den style contest – will see various companies putting their innovations to a panel of packaging experts.

Supported by

So whether you’re looking for new packaging ideas to create brand standout, costsaving packaging technology, or the latest eco-friendly packaging, you’ll find it all here under one roof at easyFairs® PACKAGING IRELAND. Enjoy the show

AIP THERMOFORM PACKAGING AiP Thermoform Packaging is dedicated to the design and manufacture of “customised thermoform packaging” such as simple blisters, clamshells collation trays and presentation trays. The company is driven to provide a quality product on time at a competitive price, without exception.

With over a decade of experience supplying the Irish market, AiP has developed a wide range of products for a diverse customer base, from the private SME to the multinational.

AiP Thermoform Packaging also holds the sole manufacturing licence for Mr Blister Vituweld patented clam-shell design. Virtuweld was developed as a response to an increasing need for tamper resistant packaging in all retail sectors. After examining the problem, Mr Blister developed and patented a cost effective way to give additional security to packaging, without the hassle and cost of additional sealing processes. Virtuweld is a conventional clam pack that has been designed so that the back manually clips firmly into the front. The secure closure is then further enhanced by the addition of a stitch-welded effect, completing the illusion that the pack is actually welded. As well as providing extremely good levels of security, Virtuweld packs can also be customised to allow quick and easy access by the consumer once purchased.

AiP, which is ISO 9001 certified, offers complete project management of packaging projects, from concept to completion. Typical project development can consist of the following, after initial customer briefing: 1.

to our innovative solutions.

Whatever your problems, we can help improve packing line efficiency, meet short-run lengths and lower costs. Our surgery is now open for business.”

CHESAPEAKE Chesapeake’s innovative pharmaceutical packaging solutions are the perfect cure-all for customers in search of a prescription that really works. They offer an unmatched range of products and services via a global network of 23 dedicated factories. Valuable too, their technical creativity shines through in cleverly designed solutions such as their unique Easipak™ leaflet-cartons, just one of their many practical ideas.

Chesapeake will be exhibiting its cartonboard engineering skills as well as its expertise in labels and leaflets. On show will be Chesapeake’s Easipak™, which was developed to ensure leaflet insertion remains trouble free. Easipak™ is already used by a number of leading global pharma producers due to its ability to improve packaging line efficiency and reduce inventory.

As well as a wide range of sizes, Easipak™ can carry more than one leaflet and offers promotional/marketing opportunities, as well as improved ease for the consumer.

Chesapeake have also extended their innovative security solution, Protex®, to offer the possibility of consumer/brand-owner interaction. The system can now help to verify the authenticity of a product, track its global distribution, as well as deliver product and promotional information direct to the customer.

Pro-tex® was originally developed as a security checking system, allowing a consumer to verify the authenticity of a code prior to a product’s purchase. Each unique Pro-tex® code is securely generated through a closed-loop system operated by Chesapeake.

Codes, which can be applied to all forms of consumer packaging, are then checked against a secure database. A consumer registering the code for the first time will receive confirmation by a return text message.

However, if the code has already been registered or is not recorded on the database, an instant text message will alert the user. The unique code can be applied within multiple formats and systems, including human readable, data matrix, SGTIN and electronic track and trace.

Also on show will be the latest leaflet-label styles which offer a 2-in-1 solution, both reducing costs and improving line speed. As well as additional space for product information, Chesapeake’s leaflet-labels eliminate the process of inserting leaflets into a carton for products packed in a bottle or jar and, in some cases, even reduce the need for outer packaging. Other new innovative label styles on show include Laser Markable Labels, Hanger Labels and a new three ply leaflet-label.

Chesapeake’s investment in new equipment such as digital label technology has strengthened customer service levels and extended the range of products offered. Gill Wright went on to say, “We believe we have a lot of fresh ideas to share. Booking an appointment at our packaging surgery is painless and we aim to cure all your packaging ailments.”
