Manufacturing, packaging & logistics
Machines that run, robots that move and packaging lines you can watch — the most hands-on show floors in the country.
Australia’s manufacturing calendar is anchored by Australian Manufacturing Week (Melbourne, May 2027), APPEX — the Australasian Processing & Packaging Expo (Melbourne, March 2027) — and CeMAT Australia for intralogistics and warehousing at Sydney Showground in July 2027.
Live machinery dominates these floors. Stands need clear demonstration zones, guarding, three-phase power and compressed air, and the build schedule is usually driven by when heavy equipment can be placed.
