When the annual WestPack show returns to the Anaheim Convention Center next week, it will highlight industry- and service-specific solutions with four focus areas: Contract Packaging & Outsourcing Services; Cosmetic & Personal Care Packaging; Material Handling & Logistics; and Pharmaceutical and Nutraceutical Packaging.
The Contract Packaging and Outsourcing Services focus area is set up to enable attendees to meet leading contract packagers, manufacturers and outsourcing companies providing a host of services including packaging, labeling and filling; logistics, warehousing and distribution; testing and compliance; research and development; package engineering, design and consultations.

The Cosmetic & Personal Care Packaging area will highlight a spectrum of services and supplies for the cosmetic, fragrance, and personal care packaging industries. Packaging solutions to be featured include stylized bottles, jars, pouches, and tubes; specialty labeling; innovative design services; coatings, colorants, and finishes; closures, valves, pumps, and sprayers; and ties and ribbons.
Visitors to the Material Handling & Logistics focus area can learn about an array of equipment, products, and services for material handling, automation and logistics, including conveying equipment, palletizers, racking systems, robotics, and warehouse and inventory management systems.
