The main topics of the Optima Group vary depending on the focus on the trade show. At Pack Expo in Las Vegas, everything revolves around highly flexible filling and packaging machines for cosmetics and single-serve products.

Adopting the slogan “Circular Packaging” Optima works flat out to develop sustainable packaging solutions that embrace the principles of the circular economy and fit seamlessly into sustainability initiatives. Examples of this include recyclable sleeve bagsrecyclable sleeve bags made from mono-materials and paper packaging for paper hygiene products. The extensive digital Intelligent Production Assistance Services offer valuable instruments for better machine availability, higher line efficiency and optimal operator assistance. The real-time communication system Remote Assist for fast troubleshooting, for example, has made commissioning possible for customers in times of travel restrictions.Accelerated implementation of turnkey projectsAt the sister trade show Healthcare Packaging Expo and Interphex in New York, it’s all about the topics that affect the pharmaceutical companies: the smooth running of complex turnkey projects including filling, closing, isolator and freeze-drying technologies. Optima Pharma ensures this with theCSPE process. Right from the design phase, the process makes systematic use of the possibilities offered by digital engineering and reduces the time span between designing the system and the start of production. In addition, the smallest batches of valuable pharmaceuticals need to be filled in different containers in a flexible way. Optima meets this requirement with the OPTIMA MultiUse systems. The turnkey portfolio of the Pharma business unit is rounded off with innovative bio-decontamination systems and clean room technologies of Metall+Plastic and freeze-drying technologies. The safe and efficient production and filling of cell and gene therapies has also become possible recently. There are high hopes in medical circles for cell and gene therapy as personalized medicine. Optima Pharma has automated the production and filling steps.At ICE Orlando, the focus is on the web converting solutions offered by the business unit Optima Life Science. Transdermal plasters and orally disintegrating films with a pharmaceutical ingredient, for example, can be produced and packed optimally with Optima Life Science machine solutions.Pack Expo Las Vegas: September 27 to 29, 2021, Las Vegas Convention Center, hall C, booth 1641Healthcare Packaging Expo Las Vegas: September 27 to 29, 2021, Las Vegas Convention Center, hall SL, booth 6748Interphex New York:? October 19 to 21, 2021, Javits Center, booth 3103ICE Orlando?: October 19 to 21, 2021, Orange County Convention Center, booth 424
