Airline and train packaging will be on show at the WTCE exhibition in Hamburg this April.

Product packaging plays an important role onboard airlines and trains, with key additional design considerations from the size and format of packs, to the materials used.

Packaging for onboard airlines and rail must also be light-weight, environmentally-friendly, easy to open and align with the airline’s brand positioning creating a unique challenge for the industry.

Remmerco, supplier of premium disposable catering packaging, along with Albéa (beauty and personal care packaging), Colpac (paperboard and combination packaging firm) and Twinkle Packaging Company (eco-friendly packaging materials and technology) will be showcasing their range of products at the World Travel Catering & Onboard Services Expo (WTCE) in Hamburg, 5-7 April.

Archana Sharma, WTCE event manager, said: “WTCE highlights innovations from across the entire travel catering and onboard services industry, with packaging no exception to this. With the growing popularity of convenience and food on-the-go trends, the industry is increasingly recognising specialist packaging needs.”
