UNITED CAPS will be exhibiting at Interpack 2026, held from 7 to 13 May 2026 in Düsseldorf, Germany. For us, this is an important opportunity to meet customers and partners, share what we are working on, and take part in the conversations shaping the future of packaging.

This year, our presence at Interpack will be built around the theme IMAGINE BETTER. It reflects our belief that customers increasingly need more from a closures partner than products alone. They also need practical innovation, useful dialogue and the ability to develop solutions in a more collaborative way.

During the exhibition, visitors to the UNITED CAPS booth will be able to discover new closure solutions across beverages, agrochemical, edible oils and carton packaging. We will also introduce the BETTER LAB, where visitors can book time with our design teams to explore ideas in a more hands-on way. With a 3D printer on site, the BETTER LAB will provide an opportunity to make discussions more tangible and begin shaping solutions together.

Alongside this, UNITED CAPS will host its BETTER TALKS, a series of masterclasses focused on new products and key topics influencing the future of packaging. We will also be showing how we are creating 10 Billion BETTER CARBON FOOTPRINTS this year, reflecting our focus not only on product performance, but also on reducing environmental impact.

More than presenting new solutions, we see Interpack as a chance to listen, exchange ideas and work more closely with customers on the challenges ahead. If you are planning to visit Interpack 2026, we would be glad to welcome you to our booth. Appointments in the BETTER LAB are expected to fill up quickly, so we encourage visitors to book in advance here: https://wkf.ms/3Og7EbN

UNITED CAPS will be exhibiting at ProPak Vietnam 2026, held from 31 March to 02 April 2026 at SECC, Ho Chi Minh City. For us, this is another opportunity to stay close to our customers in APAC and strengthen relationships in a market that continues to grow and evolve.

With our production site at UNITED CAPS KULIM in Malaysia, we are well positioned to support partners across the region with reliable supply and consistent quality. Being present at ProPak Vietnam gives us the opportunity to meet face-to-face, understand local needs more clearly, and have open conversations about how we can best support ongoing and future projects.

During the exhibition, we will showcase a selection of our closure solutions across key segments, including beverages, carton packaging, specialised nutrition and other applications. Visitors can explore solutions designed to support performance on the line, ease of use for consumers, and compatibility with evolving packaging requirements across different categories.

More than presenting products, we see this event as a chance to listen and exchange ideas. Every market has its own priorities, and we value the insights that come from direct conversations with producers and brand owners. If you are visiting ProPak Vietnam 2026, we would be glad to meet you at Hall B1, Booth BA04 and explore how we can work together.

For the very first time, UNITED CAPS will be taking part in ProPak Indonesia 2025, happening from 19 to 22 November at JIEXPO Kemayoran, Jakarta. As one of Europe’s leading manufacturers of caps and closures with a growing presence in Asia through our plant in Kulim, Malaysia, we’re excited to bring our expertise to Indonesia. This marks an important milestone as we continue to strengthen our connections with customers and partners across the region.

Representing UNITED CAPS at the event will be Maxime Frouin, Sales & Marketing Director APAC, and Nicholas Chua, Head of Sales APAC, who will be on-site to meet with visitors and share more about our capabilities and product range.

Among the highlights to be showcased are the 29/25 S-SPRING II, a tethered sport cap designed to stay attached to the bottle, helping reduce plastic waste while offering smooth, on-the-go convenience. Our 23-HPAK also will be displayed, a high-performance carton closure that delivers efficiency and affordability without the need for costly line changes, along with the 99/127 KINDCAP, an eco-friendly snap cap for infant milk powder cans that recently won the Gold Prize at the Sustainability Design Competition at SWOP 2024.

Join us at ProPak Indonesia 2025 and discover how we’re shaping the future of caps and closures through dedication, performance, and partnership. Together, let’s explore new possibilities and create lasting connections.

We look forward to discovering how we can serve you even better!

Sustainability Week this year takes place on 4, 5 and 6 November at 2 PM CET, and features three live webinars that explore how sustainability is embedded across UNITED CAPS and how the company is helping customers prepare for the EU Packaging and Packaging Waste Regulation (PPWR) coming into force in August 2026.

“EU packaging regulation is entering a new era,” said Benoît Henckes, CEO of UNITED CAPS. “These stricter rules emphasise design for recyclability, support responsible material selection, and aim to minimise unnecessary packaging while strengthening Extended Producer Responsibility. It’s a decisive moment for our industry.

At UNITED CAPS, sustainability has long been part of our DNA. We’re working hand in hand with customers to encourage lifecycle thinking, support compliance readiness, and provide reliable access to recycled polymers. Sustainability Week forms part of our broader effort to help every customer navigate the new regulations with clarity and confidence.”

Sustainability Week: The Details

Sustainability Week showcases how UNITED CAPS brings its sustainability commitment to life through innovation, transparency and partnership. Across three sessions, attendees will gain insight into the company’s approach, its support for customers navigating new requirements, and how sustainability has become one of the top three buying criteria in packaging today.

“These webinars go beyond theory,” said Mark Tomkinson from the Communications Team at UNITED CAPS, who will host the webinars. “They focus on practical solutions that will help brands meet PPWR requirements and strengthen their sustainability credentials.”

Attendees can expect the following during these three live sessions and will have the opportunity to ask questions to UNITED CAPS experts:

PPWR: Rules, Risks and Opportunities You Can’t Ignore
Understand how new European packaging regulations will reshape design, sourcing and market access, and what that means for your business.
Tuesday, November 4th – 2 PM CET

UNITED CAPS’ Mark Tomkinson sits down with Pierre-Henri Bournazel, Head of Group Sustainability at UNITED CAPS, for a conversation about one of the most significant shifts in European packaging regulation in decades — the Packaging and Packaging Waste Regulation (PPWR). Together, they explore how it will shape design choices, sourcing strategies, and market access, and what it will take for companies to thrive as sustainability becomes a business imperative.

Making Every Cap Matter
See how sustainability comes to life inside UNITED CAPS, embedded in every function, every process and every cap we produce.
Wednesday, November 5th – 2 PM CET

Mark Tomkinson is joined by representatives from across UNITED CAPS for an open conversation about how sustainability is operationalised across the value chain — from product design and production to sourcing and strategy — so that every cap truly matters.

Decode Mass Balance: Turn Complexity into Competitive Edge
Cut through the confusion around mass balance and learn how to use it as a tool for credible sustainability claims and market differentiation.
Thursday, November 6th – 2 PM CET

Mark Tomkinson is again joined by Pierre-Henri Bournazel, Head of Group Sustainability at UNITED CAPS, to demystify one of sustainability’s most complex topics — mass balance. Together, they explore how this approach enables the transition to renewable feedstocks, what its limitations are, and how understanding it can help companies make smarter, more credible sustainability choices.

“Part of being BETTER UNITED is being a strategic partner to our customers,” added Tomkinson. “These conversations reveal the expertise driving sustainability across UNITED CAPS and the practical steps helping our industry move forward together.”
