We’ll Be at PACK EXPO 2026 — Here’s What We’re Bringing With Us

Every couple of years, the whole industry ends up in the same place.


PACK EXPO International brings together just about everything tied to processing and packaging—equipment, systems, ideas, and the people who actually run them. This year it’s back in Chicago, October 18–21.


MIXSYS will be there, and for us it’s less about putting something on display and more about having real conversations.


What We Focus On When We’re There


A lot of booths show equipment. That’s expected.


What we tend to talk about is what’s happening around that equipment. Where processes slow down. Where systems don’t quite line up. Where production could be better without starting over.


That’s where most of our work comes from.


We design and build systems that cover material handling, mixing, conveying, batching, controls, and automation—but the reason people stop by isn’t just to look at equipment. It’s to figure out how to make their current setup run better.


Why This Show Still Matters


You can research a lot online, but it’s not the same as seeing things run.


At PACK EXPO, you can:


Watch equipment in operation

Compare different approaches side by side

Talk through real problems with people who deal with them every day


It saves time. What might take months of back-and-forth can get narrowed down in a few conversations.


What You’ll Get From Stopping By


If you come by the MIXSYS booth, expect a straightforward conversation.


We’ll talk through what you’re working with, what’s giving you trouble, and where things could improve. Sometimes that leads to new equipment. A lot of times it leads to updating or reworking what’s already there.


Either way, you leave with a clearer direction.


Chicago Makes It Easy


Being based in the Chicago area, this show is a bit of a home field for us. It also makes follow-ups, visits, and next steps easier after the show wraps up.


If You’re Already Planning to Attend


Make time to walk the floor, see different approaches, and ask questions.


And if you’ve got a process that’s been bugging you for a while, bring it with you. Those are usually the best conversations.
