Closing the year: SPG’s presence at key trade fairs

Visits to international trade fairs: innovation, trends and direct industry engagement

Over recent months, our commercial team has attended some of the most important trade fairs in the packaging, food and export sectors across Europe. These visits strengthen our connection with the market, help anticipate emerging trends, and enable SPG to maintain a direct dialogue with customers, suppliers and international industry leaders.

ANUGA
One of the world’s leading food trade fairs. Our commercial managers identified a growing demand for high-barrier recyclable packaging, large doypacks for pet food and solutions incorporating recycled content (PCR) for food contact, in line with the progress of the PPWR delegated acts.

Packaging Summit
At this specialised event, discussions focused on reuse, European eco-modulation schemes, factory digitalisation and the role of PP and PE mono-material structures as a key solution for the 2026–2030 horizon.

Milano Rho – Making Cosmetics
This week, our Italian commercial team attended Making Cosmetics at Milano Rho, an event bringing together more than 7,000 professionals from the cosmetics, personal care and nutraceutical industries.
A key meeting point to gain first-hand insight into market trends, connect with manufacturers and suppliers, and discover innovations shaping the pace of such a competitive and dynamic market.

The conclusions drawn from these trade fairs reinforce that SPG is fully aligned with the trends shaping the market: genuine recyclability, high-performance solutions, PCR content and lightweight structures that help reduce CO₂ emissions.
