LogiPack 2026 gears up to unite the Iberian packaging and logistics sectors in Lisbon

The convergence of two critical industries

As we move through July 2026, the European industrial calendar is already locking in its key autumn events. Among the most anticipated for the Iberian market is LogiPack 2026, scheduled to take place from October 27 to 29 at the Feira Internacional de Lisboa (FIL). Organized with the support of the Belgian-Luxembourg Chamber of Commerce in Portugal (CCLBL), this professional exhibition is positioning itself as a mandatory meeting point for decision-makers across the packaging and logistics value chains.

The strategic decision to merge packaging and logistics into a single, integrated event reflects a growing reality in our sector. Today, a corrugated box is no longer just a protective shell; it is a data carrier, a warehouse optimization tool, and the final touchpoint in the e-commerce supply chain. LogiPack 2026 aims to address this intersection by showcasing solutions that span from raw material sourcing to post-consumer recovery.

Exhibition sectors and market focus

Recent updates to the event's platform confirm a steady expansion of the exhibitor list, drawing companies from across Europe. The exhibition floor will be divided into several core sectors designed to cover the entire lifecycle of a product's journey. These include:

• Raw Materials and Substrates
• Packaging Design and Engineering
• Material Transformation and Converting
• Intralogistics and Warehouse Equipment

For professionals in the paper and corrugated board industry, the "Material Transformation" and "Packaging Design" areas will be of particular interest. As lightweighting and high-resistance kraft liners continue to dominate market demands in 2026, converters are looking for machinery and design innovations that can reduce material usage without compromising structural integrity during transit.

Sustainability and circular economy on the agenda

Beyond the exhibition floor, LogiPack 2026 will feature a comprehensive Conference Cycle and Technical Academies. These sessions are built collaboratively with industry stakeholders to tackle pressing issues such as the circular economy and sustainable competitiveness. With European regulations tightening around packaging waste, the ability to demonstrate true recyclability and efficient reverse logistics is no longer optional for brands.

The event targets a highly qualified audience, including supply chain managers, packaging engineers, and sustainability directors. By facilitating a dedicated "Contact Exchange" platform, the organizers aim to move beyond traditional networking, fostering a model oriented toward concrete project development and strategic partnerships.

LogiPack 2026 represents a mature approach to industry trade fairs, recognizing that packaging and logistics can no longer operate in silos. Will the Iberian market fully capitalize on this integrated approach to solve the ongoing challenges of the last-mile delivery?
