In May 2026, Ishida will return to Interpack, the premier global packaging trade show, to unveil innovations that assist food manufacturers in achieving efficient, safe, and sustainable food production.
Interpack is scheduled for 7–13 May 2026 at the Messe Düsseldorf Exhibition Center in Germany. At stand 14/A40 in Hall 14, Ishida will showcase its cutting-edge solutions, including the leading CCW-AS multihead weigher range, the newly introduced IX-PD photon counting dual energy X-Ray inspection system, the recently acquired Robot Grader, and the high-capacity QX-800 tray sealer, specifically designed for food and drink packaging.
Ishida’s exhibit at Interpack 2026 will feature four key product areas: multihead weighing, quality control, fresh food (including protein), and snacks packing. Together, these zones will present over 30 innovative solutions. Each area will have dedicated experts available to address the unique challenges faced by food manufacturers.
A standout feature of Ishida’s exhibition is its fresh food zone, where the company will highlight its tray sealer lineup, including the newly launched QX-800 model tailored for high-volume production lines. The QX-800 provides perfectly sealed trays in a compact, energy-efficient design that enables tool changes in under five minutes. Importantly, this model can also accommodate skinpack applications, an increasingly preferred method for sealing fresh meat and fish, as manufacturers seek sustainable packaging solutions and aim to minimize packaging materials.
In addition to these four dedicated areas, Ishida will demonstrate how its smart solutions guide manufacturers toward Industry 5.0 principles. This includes the adoption of its remote monitoring and production software, Sentinel 5.0. This advanced system features functions that enhance connectivity, traceability, remote diagnostics, and paperless compliance proof—key challenges within the food and drink packaging sector.
Steve Jones, Marketing Director of Ishida Europe, stated, “We are thrilled to be returning to Interpack. It is always brilliant to come together as an industry and engage with our customers. Every three years, Interpack provides a unique opportunity to exchange information, understand challenges, learn, showcase solutions, and introduce innovations, and Ishida is always here to lead the way!”
