Istanbul, Türkiye – For its 31st edition, Eurasia Packaging Istanbul, among the Eurasian region’s foremost trade platforms serving the packaging sector, comes back to Tüyap Fair and Congress Center from 13 to 16 October 2026.
Manufacturers of packaging, technology suppliers, buyers, investors and sector professionals from Türkiye and from overseas markets will gather at the show, which Reed Tüyap Fairs Inc. stages together with the Turkish Packaging Manufacturers Association (ASD) and further industry bodies, with backing from the Republic of Türkiye Ministry of Trade. Covering packaging products, production technologies, processing solutions, printing and converting, the fair once more delivers a wide-ranging business platform.
The 2025 edition, its 30th, proved a landmark: 77,165 visitors from 141 countries attended, 14,017 of them international, while more than 1,200 exhibiting companies from 40 countries took part. Building on that, Eurasia Packaging Istanbul aims to widen its international reach and commercial impact further in 2026.
A Strategic Hub Where Packaging Professionals Converge
Across three decades, the fair has grown into a recognised international marketplace that links suppliers with purchasers throughout Europe, North Africa, the Middle East, Central Asia, the CIS region and places beyond.
Sitting between large production and consumption markets, Türkiye’s geography reinforces Istanbul’s standing as a logical venue for cross-border trade. In that context, exhibiting firms can use the event to build fresh commercial ties, investigate export destinations, hold talks with distributors and procurement specialists, and show their newest products and technologies to a global audience.
A full picture of the packaging value chain will again be set out in 2026, with offerings ranging from materials, packaging products and complementary solutions to packaging machinery, production technologies, systems for printing and converting, plus equipment for processing food and beverages.
Gathering these complementary segments beneath a single roof means visitors to Eurasia Packaging Istanbul 2026 can survey a wide spread of technologies, weigh options side by side and appraise their production and investment needs in one business setting.
B2B Prospects Boosted by the International Hosted Buyer Program
Engaging purchasers from abroad stays a key priority for Eurasia Packaging Istanbul 2026. Via its Hosted Buyer Program, the show welcomes chosen purchasing specialists and decision-makers from priority international markets, above all firms with live investment, procurement and sourcing needs.
Pre-arranged B2B appointments and face-to-face networking during the fair underpin the programme, whose purpose is to generate sharper business prospects between exhibitors and qualified buyers from abroad.
Pairing suppliers with purchasers actively hunting for packaging machinery, processing technologies and allied solutions, the programme sets out to foster commercial partnerships, bolster export prospects and raise the calibre of international business exchanges.
Technology, New Ideas and Sustainability in Focus
With packaging requirements shifting continually, producers are placing ever greater emphasis on automation, efficiency, material optimisation, smarter production processes and sustainability.

Food Processing Technology Rounds Out the Line-up
Processing technology for food and beverages will likewise form a significant component of the 2026 gathering.
Within one exhibition ecosystem, producers of food and drink can examine processing, production and packaging technologies thanks to the Food-Tech Eurasia Special Section.
