Every year our team looks forward to trade show season. Each show is an opportunity to meet new people, see familiar faces, and gain insight on what brands want and need.

Through 2022 and 2023, Airlite is exhibiting from coast to coast at more events than ever before. We’ll be showcasing our extensive portfolio of recyclable food packaging, including our IML (in-mold labeled) containers and lids, HPP packaging, oxygen barrier packaging, and drink cups.

Here is a rundown of some of the shows we’ll be exhibiting at this year and next.

 

Natural Products Expo East – Booth #2649

Philadelphia, PA — Sept. 29 – Oct. 1, 2022

We’re excited to participate in Natural Products Expo East for the first time this year. This event is designed to connect teams and industry experts, share innovations and build community amongst those in the industry that are committed to a more sustainable future.

Expo East is the perfect forum to learn about current trends in the plant-based food category, particularly with east coast brands, and discuss how IML containers and oxygen barrier packaging complement the segment so well.

 

Pack Expo International – Booth #22025

Chicago, IL — Oct. 23 – 26, 2022

Chicago is hosting this (typically) biannual event for the first time in 4 years after it was canceled in 2020 due to COVID. At Pack Expo International, exhibitors come from every industry sector that uses packaging (shipping, distribution, or retail) to showcase the latest developments in packaging technology, containers, components, and sustainability.

Produced by the Association for Packaging and Processing Technologies, this conference is always a great event to see the category-specific trends around sustainable food packaging, take in educational sessions, and proudly showcase our portfolio of recyclable food packaging.

 

Natural Products Expo West – Booth #N-1623

Anaheim, CA — Mar. 8-10, 2023

Expo West is one of our industry’s most prominent events. After a couple of years off due to COVID, we were so excited to be able to attend again in early 2022. It felt good to showcase our new booth and watch our partners in the plant-based food category gain attention. We’re already looking forward to the next one!

The event, considered by many the “Super Bowl” for the natural product’s industry—features over 2,700 exhibitors, educational programming, and the best opportunity to spot emerging innovations and up-and-coming brands making their debut.
