In the automation and robotics area, companies such as Linde Material Handling, SEW-EURODRIVE, Transporeon, VisionNav Robotics, Itoh Denki Europe, Odoo, Banner Engineering, NovaX Robotics and MABO Automation will be present.

The Community of Madrid will participate for the second consecutive year. Additionally, the Best ESG Exhibitor Initiative Awards will be presented on November 12.
The PPWR (EU Regulation 2025/40) mandates that 40% of transport packaging must be reusable by 2030, increasing to 70% by 2040. It also imposes stricter restrictions on PFAS in food contact packaging from August 2026, requiring mandatory technical documentation with traceability by SKU and country registration for companies placing packaging on the market.
