Packaging Suppliers Global | Issue Three 2026

Welcome to our pharmaceutical and healthcare packaging issue, where the spotlight falls on the innovations, regulations and global trends shaping one of the packaging industry’s most demanding markets.

As healthcare supply chains become increasingly complex, packaging continues to play a vital role in product protection, patient safety and regulatory compliance. This issue explores key topics influencing the industry, including serialisation, traceability and the impact of geopolitical change on pharmaceutical and medical device development.

Our PHARMAP 2026 post-show feature highlights discussions around AI, sustainability and patient-centricity from one of Europe’s leading pharma events, while Ton’s take draws on his experience as a speaker to consider pharmaceutical packaging beyond the pack itself. Together, these features reflect an industry focused on innovation, resilience and future readiness.
