Showcasing the Toppan Group’s Southeast Asia barrier packaging business and sustainable packaging supply capabilities at international event in Thailand

PACK PRINT INTERNATIONAL is a packaging and printing exhibition held every other year in Bangkok. It showcases packaging materials and equipment as well as printing machinery for items including food, cosmetics, personal care goods, pharmaceuticals, and industrial products. Roughly 300 companies took part in the 2017 event, which attracted more than 17,000 visitors.

PACK PRINT INTERNATIONAL 2022 will be held at the Bangkok International Trade & Exhibition Centre (BITEC) from October 19 through 22. For packaging manufacturers, food producers, and other end users from Thailand and Southeast Asia, Toppan, Siam Toppan Packaging, and Majend Makcs will present the Toppan Group’s sustainable packaging supply capabilities and barrier packaging business centered on GL BARRIER.1

Demand for mono-material packaging and sustainable solutions is growing, particularly in Europe. Toppan is enhancing its sales and manufacturing network by investing proactively, leveraging development capabilities centered on GL BARRIER, and taking advantage of its global network to be the best partner for multinational clients.

Thailand and Southeast Asia are hotspots for packaging demand due to the large number of manufacturing facilities run by multinational companies, and Toppan has established a network for meeting diverse customer needs by supplying high-quality products. In addition to folding carton manufacturer Siam Toppan Packaging, Toppan acquired flexible packaging company Majend Makcs earlier this year and is growing its business to provide robust support for customers expanding across borders.

As a component of corporate social responsibility, the use of sustainable packaging is now an integral part of business for multinationals. Global demand is therefore increasing, and Toppan is developing a network to ensure stable supply. As a major location for supplying packaging to leading European and North American companies, operations in Thailand form a vital part of this network.

GL BARRIER is a comprehensive barrier product brand with an extensive track record. Toppan develops, manufactures, and supplies barrier films that enable mono-material structures?for more sustainable packaging as part of the GL BARRIER lineup.
