WestPack Co-locates
With Sustainable Manufacturing Expo
February 3-4, 2026
Anaheim Convention Center, Anaheim, CA
WestPack, well-known as the leading event showcasing the latest innovation and excellence in packaging solutions, will maintain its 50+ years of delivering value to the West Coast's marketplace while having the added strategic value of being positioned alongside the new Sustainable Manufacturing Expo in the North Hall of the Anaheim Convention Center (just steps from its previous location in Hall A).
Why this strategic move? Sustainability isn't just a passing trend—it's the driving force reshaping the packaging industry. By co-locating with a show entirely focused on sustainability, we aim to attract a qualified audience, including major Food and Beverage Consumer Package Goods companies under pressure to package sustainably.
California, at the forefront of environmental legislation, recently passed groundbreaking laws like the California Circular Economy and Plastic Pollution Reduction Act (SB 54). These regulations, which go into effect in 2025, demand that manufacturers embrace sustainable practices, from rethinking materials to owning the lifecycle of their products. And these regulations extend to all manufacturers doing business in the state.
Enter the Sustainable Manufacturing Expo. It's not just about products; it's about reimagining entire lifecycles. Packaging plays a pivotal role in this journey towards sustainability. Having packaging within SM Expo aligns seamlessly with the holistic approach CPGs, OEMs, CPO/Co-packagers, contract manufacturers, and private label manufacturers are taking towards sustainable product design—from inception to disposal.
At WestPack and the Sustainable Manufacturing Expo, we're not just talking about sustainability—we're living it, driving change, and shaping the future of packaging. Join us in Anaheim, February 3-4, 2026!
