The final audited numbers for APPEX 2024 are in. Owned and presented by APPMA, the Australian Processing & Packaging Expo brought together over 10,550 visitors from across the packaging & processing industry across the four days.

Taking over the entire expo space at the Melbourne Convention & Exhibition Centre, the exhibition floor created an opportunity for visitors to connect with over 440 local and international exhibitors, discover new technology, and experience the latest in machinery and materials first-hand. It was a triumph for all of industry.

A highlight of the week was an evening of celebrations at the APPMA Awards of Excellence Gala, honouring incredible achievements across the industry. 

Show organiser ETF has extended a big thank you to all visitors, exhibitors, sponsors, media partners and the Australian Packaging and Processing Machinery Association and its Board Members.

APPEX returns to Melbourne in 2027.
