2025 dates set for ICE Europe

ORGANISERS of ICE Europe have confirmed that the next edition of the international converting exhibition will take place from March 11-13, 2025 at the Munich Trade Fair Centre in Germany.

The most recent event earlier this year attracted 4,850 trade visitors from 64 countries – a 30% increase in visitor numbers compared to the previous edition.

Organisers said that building upon the ‘triumph’ of this year’s show, the decision for ICE Europe to maintain its biennial cycle has been made rather than switching to an annual event. The decision was made following a ‘comprehensive examination of current market conditions and in-depth market research’, which organisers said ‘significantly shaped the decision to forego the forthcoming edition of the show and uphold the established regular show cycle’.

“We are extremely gratified by the overwhelmingly positive feedback we have received, affirming unanimous support for ICE Europe 2025,” said Patrick Herman, event director of the converting, paper and print events, on behalf of RX. “It is also great to see that our key accounts have already confirmed their attendance for the forthcoming show edition.

“Rest assured, preparations are already in full swing for an exceptional show edition in the subsequent year.”

ICE Europe covers crucial topics such as efficiency, productivity, automation, digitalisation, and sustainability. The exhibition will take place parallel to CCE International, an event for the corrugated and folding carton industry.
