JAKARTA, Indonesia — July 17, 2026 — The Southeast Asian industrial and manufacturing sectors are shifting their strategic focus to Jakarta as PT Pamerindo Indonesia (part of Informa Markets) finalizes operations for ProPak Indonesia 2026. Scheduled to run from July 21 to July 24, 2026, at the Jakarta International Expo (JIExpo) Kemayoran, the premier international processing and packaging trade event serves as a vital procurement and planning platform for factories, brands, and automation engineers across the ASEAN region.
Returning as a standalone cornerstone within the globally renowned ProPak Asia series—which spans Thailand, Vietnam, China, and India—the 2026 Indonesian edition provides critical sourcing pathways for the food & beverage, pharmaceutical, cosmetic, and fast-moving consumer goods (FMCG) sectors.
Uniting the Ecosystem: Co-Location with FHI 2026
A defining feature of the 2026 exhibition is its strategic co-location with Food & Hospitality Indonesia (FHI) 2026. By bringing both events under one roof at JIExpo, the organizers have established an integrated supply chain ecosystem.
While FHI showcases premium culinary products, beverage brands, and hospitality innovations, ProPak Indonesia delivers the essential processing machinery and packaging technologies required to scale production and bring these finished goods to market. This co-location enables seamless cross-industry collaboration, allowing food manufacturers, distributors, and hotel operators to address production efficiency and retail-ready packaging solutions simultaneously.
Technical Portfolios and On-Site Automation
Spanning across the state-of-the-art facilities of JIExpo, with primary exhibition operations centralized in Hall A1, ProPak Indonesia 2026 is structurally divided into five dedicated industrial sectors:
- Processing Technology: Cutting-edge machinery for thermal treatment, mixing, and raw material preparation.
- Packaging Technology & Solutions: Advanced forming, filling, sealing, and cartoning lines designed for high-throughput operations.
- Automation & Robotics: Smart manufacturing sensors, robotic arms, and control systems designed to optimize factory floor productivity.
- Drink/Beverage Technology: Specialized fluid handling, bottling, and capping systems.
- Pharmacy & Cosmetics Technology: High-precision dosing and sterile packaging systems meeting rigid hygienic standards.
To augment the technical displays, the four-day event will host a suite of collaborative knowledge-sharing platforms. Attendees can participate in ProPak Talk seminars, evaluate emerging materials at the Packaging Design Clinic, and access pre-scheduled B2B meetings through the dedicated Business Matching Program.
Operational Sustainability and Carbon Reduction
In alignment with global ESG mandates and international climate targets, PT Pamerindo Indonesia has integrated aggressive sustainability measures into the event's operational framework. Recognizing that fossil-fuel energy consumption historically represents a significant portion of an exhibition’s carbon footprint, the organizer has transitioned to green power procurement.
Sustainability Milestone: More than 90% of the electricity utilized to power ProPak Indonesia 2026 at the venue will be sourced directly from renewable energy networks, such as wind and solar. This transition significantly lowers the overall carbon footprint of the event, offering exhibitors and visitors a sustainable trade environment.
Experienced Organization and Regional Reach
With over 200 international trade exhibitions managed across Jakarta, Surabaya, and Bali, PT Pamerindo Indonesia brings unparalleled logistical expertise to the processing and packaging sector. Leveraging the global network of Informa Markets, the organization ensures that ProPak Indonesia connects local manufacturing enterprises with top-tier international equipment suppliers and global materials innovators.
