From August 27 to 29, 2026, the 2nd World Expo of Packaging Industry-Southeast Asia will be held at the Jakarta International Expo (JIEXPO) in Indonesia.
Following its success in setting an industry benchmark in 2025, this year’s exhibition will further deepen strategic cooperation. With World Expo of Packaging Industry-Southeast Asia at its core, the event will co-locate with the Paper Chain Expo, Pack Plus and Bakery ASEAN. Spanning an exhibition area of over 22,000 sqm, it will create an international trade platform covering the entire industrial chain — from raw materials and equipment manufacturing to packaging processing and terminal applications — injecting momentum into the collaborative growth of Chinese and Southeast Asian industries.
As the largest economy in Southeast Asia, Indonesia is rapidly becoming a vital hub for regional manufacturing and foreign investment. In recent years, the rapid development of sectors such as e-commerce, food delivery, food and beverage, and pharmaceuticals has continuously driven the demand for paper packaging, eco-friendly packaging, and smart packaging. With a market reaching over 600 million people in ASEAN, Indonesia holds a significant position in the regional and international packaging industry.
World Expo of Packaging Industry-Southeast Asia 2026 will continue to cultivate the Indonesian market, actively responding to the China-ASEAN industrial cooperation strategy. By once again partnering with industry organisations such as the Asosiasi Kotak Karton Gelombang Indonesia (AKKGI) and leveraging resources from packaging, papermaking, and printing associations across multiple countries, its international influence continues to rise. Notably, AKKGI will organise all its member units to attend this year and will host its 2026 Annual Convention and Gala Dinner concurrently with the exhibition, facilitating face-to-face exchanges with 500 industry elites and brand buyers.
