Hong Kong International Printing & Packaging Exhibition

The 20th Hong Kong International Printing & Packaging Exhibition 2025 was successfully held from April 27 to 30, 2025, at the AsiaWorld-Expo in Hong Kong. Co-hosted by the Hong Kong Trade Development Council and China-Hong Kong International Exhibition Co., Ltd., this edition of the show is the annual highlight of the Asian printing and packaging industry.

In terms of scale, the exhibition brought together nearly 500 exhibitors from around the world, occupying an exhibition space of close to 20,000 square meters, and attracted 12,270 professional visitors from 110 countries and regions worldwide. Complementing the event were the concurrent Hong Kong Gift & Premium Fair, Licensing Show, and Luxury Packaging Expo, with all six exhibitions drawing over 100,000 buyers from 131 countries and regions.

This year’s show featured a wealth of highlights, with green printing and packaging solutions, as well as e‑commerce packaging, emerging as key attractions. The Green Printing and Packaging Solutions Zone hosted 93 exhibitors, including Dongguan Kunbaoda, Guangdong Shaoneng, Dongguan Qianyi, and Shanghai Jielong, showcasing a range of eco‑friendly, biodegradable food‑service packaging. The E‑Commerce Packaging Zone brought together Shenzhen Dinglisheng, Zhuhai Inspire, Shenzhen Yiyoubao, Shenzhen Pinchuangyuan, and Bai Nian Anti‑Counterfeiting, offering specialized products such as cushioning packaging, anti‑counterfeit tapes, logistics envelopes, and moisture‑proof packaging for cross‑border e‑commerce. Meanwhile, the Food Packaging Zone featured 54 exhibitors, with Hubei Weijun Packaging presenting glass packaging solutions for food and beverages, while Jianbang Aluminum Foil Containers, Ningbo Jiuding, and Huizhou Yonglilong showcased various innovative food and beverage packaging options.

A rich array of concurrent events further elevated the platform for high‑level industry dialogue. Throughout the exhibition, numerous buyer‑seller matchmaking sessions, industry seminars, and trend‑setting presentations were held. The event also welcomed 75 buyer delegations from 40 countries and regions. Adopting an integrated “Exhibition+” online‑offline model, the show leveraged the “ShangduiYi” smart matching platform to facilitate precise connections between exhibitors and buyers.

The professional visitor base was exceptionally strong, with an unprecedented level of international participation. Non‑local buyers came primarily from Mainland China, Taiwan, the United States, Japan, Thailand, Malaysia, Australia, the Middle East, and South Korea. Zhang Yicong, Asia Regional Manager at Hong Kong Xuntex Asia Co., Ltd., reported that during the first two days of the show, he engaged with nearly 30 buyers from Mainland China, Taiwan, Japan, South Korea, and India, anticipating sales totaling HK$5–6 million. Jae Hyoung Kim, Managing Director of Korean exhibitor Sangil Eco & Paper Bag Co., Ltd., noted that he had connected with potential buyers from Chile, Mainland China, and major European retailers.

The exhibition yielded impressive results and received widespread acclaim within the industry. Exhibitors generally praised the high quality of professional visitors, their clear purchasing intent, and the tangible outcomes of on‑site business matchmaking. Chen Qi, founder of Yingsi International Co., Ltd., shared that on the opening day alone, he engaged with 20–30 new buyers, establishing connections through Click2Match with five buyers—representing a Mexican packaging company, South Korea’s Lotte Group, Taiwan’s Isabel Foods, and a Mainland Chinese jewelry firm—and anticipates securing orders worth HK$200,000–300,000. Attendees agreed that the Hong Kong Printing & Packaging Exhibition not only serves as a premier platform for brand exposure and business networking but also functions as a critical hub for gaining insights into Asian printing and packaging trends and exploring pathways toward green packaging and digital transformation.

The 21st Hong Kong International Printing & Packaging Exhibition (HKPP 2026) will be held from April 27 to 30, 2026, at the AsiaWorld-Expo in Hong Kong. The exhibition will continue to run concurrently with the Hong Kong Gift & Premium Fair and the Hong Kong Luxury Packaging Expo, further strengthening its role as an efficient platform for global exchange and collaboration within the printing and packaging sector.
