Trade show organizer Easyfairs announced this week the launch of its first PCD show in Milan in May 2022. The packaging trade fair will be held alongside Packaging Première.
Just over two years after its acquisition of Italian trade show Packaging Premiere, Easyfairs is to launch the first Italian edition of its PCD show. The two events will be held concurrently, with a debut edition on May 24-26, 2022. This marks PCD's first exhibition outside of Paris.
While Packaging Première is largely devoted to secondary packaging, with a strong focus on design, PCD Milan will offer additional coverage of the primary packaging sector.
"This new event will rely on the double heritage of Packaging Première and PCD, which are both part of Easyfairs' international network of events in the packaging domain," notes the organizer in a statement. Josh Brooks, Director of PCD Paris, adds that Packaging Première is "the ideal partner for the launch of PCD Milan".
