Corrugated to unite industry showcasing solutions in corrugated packaging, converting and 3D display

Packaging Solutions

FESPA’s new Corrugated event, taking place from 19 to 22 May 2026 at the Fira de Barcelona, Spain, is set to welcome a strong line up of international exhibitors who specialise in corrugated applications and technologies.

The first edition of the event will take place alongside FESPA Global Print Expo and its co-located shows: Personalisation Experience, European Sign Expo, WrapFest and the new Textile.

Visitors to Corrugated will have the opportunity to network with a host of industry experts who will offer practical and informative guidance on the transformative developments shaping the future of the corrugated sector.

In the dedicated 1500 square metre hall space (hall 3), exhibitors will highlight solutions in high speed digital print, precision converting, sustainable substrates, robotics and automation, and more – designed for the next generation of packaging manufacturing and other corrugated applications.

With a ticket to Corrugated, visitors will not only get to experience its exhibition halls and free to attend conference programme, they will also gain access to all of the FESPA 2026 co-located events.

While at the show, visitors can attend sessions in the ‘Corrugated Theatre’ (in the Corrugated exhibition space), which will cover topics such as EU packaging legislation; cyber security in the modern box plant; emerging opportunities offered by AI; the role of national and international trade associations; and more.

While at the other, co-located FESPA 2026 events, visitors will also be able to attend WrapTalks speaker sessions, centred around wrapping, as well as conference sessions on printing, signage, personalisation and textile.

Nick Kirby, non executive director, Zeus Packaging and FESPA Corrugated Ambassador, commented: ‘The corrugated industry is more advanced than ever before. That is why this year is the perfect time for FESPA to have launched its inaugural Corrugated event.

‘I look forward to seeing an array of diverse solutions at the show – from next generation digital print and converting systems to low impact materials that help packaging manufacturers, converters and brands to address their challenges. Corrugated really is set to be ‘The Place For Experts’.’
