WEPACK ASEAN Kuala Lumpur

Founded in 2023, WEPACK ASEAN is a specialized trade fair dedicated to the latest developments and innovations in the packaging and printing industries. Named "World Exhibition for Packaging", it reflects its global and comprehensive format. This annual event takes place at the Malaysia International Trade & Exhibition Centre (MITEC) in Kuala Lumpur, providing a platform for exhibitors and professional visitors worldwide to showcase products, services, and technologies, and to exchange information on the latest trends.

The fair is organized by RX China in strategic cooperation with the World Packaging Organisation (WPO). This partnership emphasizes the international reach and commitment to excellence in the industry. The fair focuses on key areas such as corrugated packaging ("Corrugated ASEAN"), folding cartons ("FoldingCarton ASEAN"), paper products ("Paper ASEAN"), and digital printing technologies ("DPrint ASEAN"), along with the associated machinery and raw materials. Highlights include live demonstrations, an industry-specific forum, and business matchmaking activities that enhance exchange and dynamics.

A significant aspect of WEPACK ASEAN is its importance to Malaysia as the host country. The fair highlights Malaysia's commitment to sustainability and innovation in the packaging industry and underscores its role as a global leader in this sector. This not only emphasizes the economic significance of the event but also Malaysia's strategic position in the Asian market.

The fair attracts a wide range of industries, including manufacturers of cardboard and paper, providers of printing technologies, and packaging machinery. The main visitor groups are cardboard color printing companies, global paper companies, and specialty paper processors, showcasing the diversity and depth of the sectors represented.

WEPACK ASEAN is part of a series of WEPACK fairs held across various parts of Asia, tailored to the specific needs and challenges of the regional markets. This facilitates extensive networking and collaboration across borders.

MITEC in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia's largest convention and event center, is modern and easily accessible. Its convenient location near international airports and excellent public transport connections make it particularly attractive to international visitors.

In summary, WEPACK ASEAN is not just a trade fair but a critical hub for innovation, business opportunities, and professional exchange in the packaging and printing industries. It offers a unique opportunity to gain insights into the latest technologies and create business synergies in a dynamically growing market.

The WEPACK ASEAN takes place annually, and therefore for the third time previsibly in November 2025 in Kuala Lumpur.
