Alongside sister publication Confectionery Production, the team will be on stand H078 so if you too are attending, please pay the stand a visit and let us know your thoughts on the magazine and our recently revamped website. Here, you’ll also be able to pick up a copy of the latest issue of the magazine, which includes a preview of the show.

I currently have plans to see Ishidas latest solution for high accuracy weighing of confectionery at small target weights, as well as Boschs upgraded WRF 600 Flex roller former for multilayer bars. In addition, Ill be learning about the latest ingredient offerings from the likes of GNT, which is presenting its colour intensive fruit, vegetable and plant concentrates; and Beneo, which is showcasing its new chewing gum 
coating technology. Ill also be catching up with Crown to hear about its latest packaging innovations, such as the capability to add LED lighting to packaging and its GiftTag technology, which allows a video message to be embedded onto packaging using a QR code.

If youre not attending, keep an eye on the Food & Drink Technology website and Twitter page, wher Ill be updating readers on who and what Ive seen throughout the show.
