12 FEBRUARY 2018 FOOD FUTURE A new exhibitor record of around 1700 companies from more than 50 countries will kick off Anuga FoodTec trade fair next month – an international supplier fair for the food and beverage industry that attracts more than 45,000 visitors to Cologne. Exhibitors will fill 140,000 sq metres of space (the size of 23 football pitches) at the city’s trade fair ground next to the Rhine in presenting their new products for the production and packaging of all types of food, alongside a multi-faceted event and congress programme. With a theme of resource efficiency, the fair will offer group-specific lectures, conferences, forums, guided tours, special events and networking opportunities organised by the German Agricultural Association. Every three years, Anuga FoodTec becomes the hotspot of the global food industry and its suppliers, as it provides a meeting point for visionaries and decision-makers alike. Those involved in the food processing, food packaging, safety and analytics, food ingredients, services and solution sectors find the event invaluable, organisers say. Speakers including Professor Michael Braugart from the Hamburg Environmental Institute, World Packaging Organisation president Professor Pierre Pienaar and Professor Alexander Sauer from the Institute for Energy Efficiency in Production at the University of Stuttgart. The expert forums will cover all food and beverage topics, through to packing and future trends. This year’s theme of Resource Efficiency will be complemented by export forums covering ‘Themes, Trends, Technologies’ and ‘Food Ingredients’. Guided tours will give visitors a compact and informative overview of specific themes, assisted by selected exhibitors who will present and explain their products, machines and functions live onsite. Themes of the tours will include robotics, Industry 4.0, flexibility in the filling and packaging technology, meat and dairy technology and innovative packing materials. A speaker’s corner will be a highlight of the event, with a brand new theme every 30 minutes throughout the duration of the fair. The live presentations will feature exhibitors showcasing their new products and services, and interested visitors can see some machines in operation.
