34 COSSMA 5I2014 PRODUCTION PACKAGING NEWS NEWS Events Interpack 2014 also has something up its sleeve for the cosmetics industry Interpack I From May the 8th to the 14th some 2,700 exhibitors from about 60 countries will be occupying 19 halls (or around some 174,000 square metres) at the Interpack in Düsseldorf where they will be present- ing their wares to all sectors of industry. Of the above exhibitors there will be more than 1,160 companies with something in their portfolios for the cosmetics industry. The new event being run in parallel with the exhibition, with a daily pro- gramme of talks and discussions, will be taking place in the Congress Center South (CCD Süd) from May the 8th to the 10th , and is entitled Components for processing and packaging. Here there will be 75 ex- hibitors presenting their services as suppliers to the packaging sector. In addition the exhibition will include companies that offer drive and control systems, sensors of various types, products for industrial image process- ing, handling technology, industrial software and communications equip- ment, as well as complete automation systems for packaging machinery. The special subject of metal packaging at the Metal Packaging Plaza in Hall 11, which will take place this year for the first time, will put the metal packaging sector and its suppliers in the spotlight and will allow about 40 companies to have an information platform with forum, bar/lounge and confidential meeting points. www.interpack.de, www.packaging-components.de photo:Interpack photo:Roeser_Digitaldruck More than 1,160 compa- nies at this year‘s Inter- pack have products or services of interest to the cosmetics industry Small ... but “wow!” P360˚ I Today’s trend seems to be away from huge, difficult to cover properly, exhibitions and more toward the smaller events where there is a lot less time lost wandering around looking for what one actually needs. As early as 1995 a number of packag- ing companies clubbed together to tackle this trend and estab- lish the Service Pack Forum, holding smaller exhibitions, per- haps in a hotel, several times a year, where they could use these regional events to attract their specific clients. The P360˚ event, also known as “Packaging Ideas”, is in effect a relaunch of this initiative which involves an overall concept, with a small exhibition, an inclusive evening dinner or show in a spe- cial location and so creating an attractive event. This idea was premiered on April 10th 2014 in the Schwetzinger Schloss near Heidelberg, Germany. The event, supported by 12 companies, attracted more than 60 customers. The exhibitors included Ballerstaedt with their safety closures and devices; the carton printers and packers Knapp; JG, with their foil lamination and flexodruck printing; Multitubes, the manufacturer of PE and laminated tubes in conventional or digital printed options; Rosa Heinz with cosmetics and pharmaceuticals packaging; Packit with their packaging combinations for cosmetics; Talis with self-adhesive labels; Vogt with print communication; Stäger with clear, transparent retail cartons, circular cans and jars, and ther- moformed packaging; Cosmetic Art Production as contract manufacturers and developers; Pacplast Thermoform with plas- tic and aluminium foils; and PTG for packaging of cosmetics, foodstuffs, pharmaceuticals and medicinal products. www.p360grad.de Successful exhibition with an evening event in the Schwetzinger Schloss photos:P360˚ Nail polish at affordable prices PKB I PKB’s Eko Nail Varnish is an inexpensive filling and cap- ping machine specifically for nail varnish. As its filling circuit is ded- icated to nail varnish, it optimizes the circuit recharging in order to counter the effects of elasticity and deformation of the product (thick fluid and small dose). It allows filling without damaging glitter particles as well as a good dose distribution in all bottles. For man- ufacturers dealing with short runs it offers the advantage of tool- free changeovers taking less than 40 seconds, and a quick clean- ing time. Its output is up to 50 bpm and it is a reliable machine par- ticularly suitable as an entry-level device. www.pkb.fr, Interpack, Hall 16, Stand D13 photo:PKB The inexpensive ma- chine is suitable as an entry-level machine, even for nail varnish with glitter particles 10th Cosmetic Business in Munich CosmeticBusiness I When 370 exhibitors and brands from the home market and from abroad come on June the 5th and 6th 2014 to the Cosmetic Business, the technical exhibition for the sup- pliers to the cosmetics industry, there will be, amongst other things, counter displays, new packaging products and materials, new caps, decorative techniques, and other packaging developments which will be shown for the first time at a German exhibition, such as, for example, Roeser. This allows any CMYK colour combination to be reproduced in photo- graphic quality. The contact-free print process allows print- ing on large areas and printing on uneven surfaces. If required clear lacquer can be added to produce a high gloss effect. www.cosmetic-business.com www.roeser-decoration.com Non-contact printing process for large areas and uneven surfaces Ī COS1405_34_Pack_News_GB_COS1405_34_Pack_News_GB 25.04.14 08:23 Seite 34
