Russian International Exhibition of Packaging, Printing, and Plastics Industry

The Russian International Exhibition of Packaging and Plastics Industry (UPAKEXPO), organized by EXPO FUSION LLC, is held annually. As the flagship event for the packaging industry in Russia and the CIS countries, UPAKEXPO focuses on packaging solutions for both food and non-food sectors. Together with RUPLASTICA, the Russian International Trade Fair for Plastics and Rubber, UPAKEXPO has formed an exhibition alliance that covers the entire value chain—from production and use to processing. This alliance brings together global industry players from across the spectrum, showcasing a diverse range of products including equipment, raw materials, finished goods, and production modules. Moreover, through specialized forums and technical platforms, the alliance highlights key economic trends such as technological sovereignty and eastward expansion, as well as global issues like environmental protection, efficient resource utilization, and innovation in new technologies. By fostering collaboration and exchange among businesses, governments, and the scientific community, this alliance helps industry participants explore end-to-end solutions, stay abreast of critical trends, and drive synergistic development and breakthrough innovations across the packaging, raw materials, and processing industries.
In 2025, the exhibition attracted more than 1,100 exhibitors from over 20 countries, who enthusiastically showcased their latest products and technological breakthroughs. The atmosphere at the exhibition was vibrant and enthusiastic, drawing over 33,000 professional visitors from 68 countries including Russia, Belarus, Kazakhstan, Germany, India, Turkey, China, Italy, France, and Uzbekistan, among others. The event facilitated numerous collaboration intentions and injected fresh vitality into the industry’s development. In 2026, the exhibition will continue to provide a comprehensive showcase of the entire packaging production and processing chain. The range of exhibits will be broad, covering packaging machinery and equipment, food and non-food packaging products, packaging materials, machinery and equipment for packaging production, coding and marking equipment, as well as warehousing, logistics, and transportation equipment. It is anticipated that the scale of the exhibition will further expand, and its appeal will continue to grow.
