Packaging Europe is the market-leading information provider for and about the European packaging industry, reaching a large, specialised readership: online, in print, and in direct communication via email and social networks. An essential resource for buyers and manufacturers of packaging, our platforms deliver an informed, international view of the new developments and underlying trends across the supply chain.
Packaging Europe has achieved its status as the only packaging media title with a truly international mass audience thanks to a sustained commitment to provide specialist coverage of the packaging industry from a pan-European perspective. Underpinning this commitment is an investment in our team of 14 industry journalists, who are collectively conversant in over 20 European languages.
In 2017 we are expanding our range of media offerings, with the introduction of the Packaging Europe Yearbook and of profile videos.
Packaging Europe Magazine is the continent’s premium packaging publication, bringing authoritative comment on the driving trends and key areas of innovation in the supply chain of today and tomorrow. With a circulation of 30,000 packaging professionals and decision makers, Packaging Europe is the industry’s most recognised and influential magazine. In addition to the print edition, distributed widely across Europe, Packaging Europe is available throughout the world as a free, downloadable digital flipbook, which extends its reach to a further 120,000 readers.
In 2017 we will be covering more topics and technologies than ever before, with issues coming out in March, May, June, September and November, in addition to our Yearbook and special expo editions for interpack, LabelExpo Europe and drinktec. See our editorial calendar on page 8 for a full list of features.

Packaging Europe works closely with the leading international packaging exhibitions and conference organisers to ensure both that we provide the best available reporting and commentary on all the key events of the year, and that participants have access to Packaging Europe’s multimedia coverage.
As well as working in partnership with dozens of events in 2017, we will have a particular focus throughout the first half of the year on interpack, the world’s biggest packaging event, and on drinktec and LabelExpo Europe from the summer through the autumn. This means we’re affording multiple opportunities to amplify investment on exhibition stands – and maximise returns.
interpackAdvance coverage of interpack, in our printed first look preview, in newsletters, on our website and on Twitter, will drive stand visits and enquiries. Our dedicated print supplement will be the essential guide to interpack, and distributed in Düsseldorf and beyond. During the show our journalists will be busy reporting from the exhibition floor, updating the wider world in real time as well as filming exhibitor profiles and preparing material for the extended review of interpack, appearing in the June edition of Packaging Europe magazine.
