INTERPACK
PORTRAIT
THE SHOW
WITH ALL THE
CONTENT.
THE PACKAGING INDUSTRY is essential to all other industry sectors. It’s impossible to think of any product without the
sometimes highly complex manufacturing processes behind it – however large or small the company or product might be. All
industry sectors require intelligent packaging strategies along the entire value chain, encompassing warehousing, logistics
and even administration. The widespread global relevance of the areas covered by interpack and the high calibre of both
exhibitors and visitors make interpack in Düsseldorf every three years the go-to international event for a highly knowledgeable
specialist audience.
THE ENTIRE VALUE CHAIN AT ONE TRADE FAIR.
interpack is the essential event for the food, beverage, confectionery,
bakery, pharmaceutical, cosmetics, non-food and industrial goods
sectors. No other trade fair in the world represents the entire supply
chain. And at no other trade fair does the packaging industry provide all
industry sectors with tailored solutions and innovative designs based on
such a variety of materials. For processing and packaging. For
distribution, consumer and product piracy protection. Protection against
contamination, spoilage and damage and for proper handling. This is
because only an integrated approach can meet the standards set by old
and new markets, social change, evolving consumer habits and rapidly
changing trends, and ensures success across the board. All in all, the
2,700 exhibitors from 60 countries are exposed to a highly qualified
audience at interpack.
INNOVATION BEGINS AT INTERPACK
Make new contacts, acquire new clients and leave your mark with an
innovative stand design. interpack is a must for global players, innovative
mid-sized companies and traditional small businesses alike. It’s where
you see technological progress first. interpack also thinks way outside the
box. It’s a trendsetter for progressive and visionary concepts and ideas in
the global field of sustainability. Numerous complementary events held
during the show provide visitors and exhibitors with valuable inspiration.
INSPIRATION FOR THE NEXT THREE YEARS.
There is more to see in the 18 exhibition halls than you can pack into a
week and you can’t get such a comprehensive, up-to-date overview of the
competition anywhere else in the world. Around 170,000 specialist
visitors from 190 countries are all potential contacts for you. Make sure
you’re there from 04-10 May, 2017 when the professionals meet in
Düsseldorf. We’re also active between each interpack, supporting our
exhibitors with global trade fairs in regional sales markets.
97% OF ALL PARTICIPANTS RECOMMEND THE TRADE FAIR.
You’ve probably noticed that, as the organisers, we are more than a little
enthusiastic about interpack. But the feedback from participants is just
as positive. Whether they are an exhibitor or a visitor, anyone who’s been
to interpack wants to return.

WE
INNO
FOR EVERYONE. interpack is the big event where the food, beverage, confectionery, bakery,
pharmaceutical, cosmetics, non-food and industrial goods sectors and their suppliers all come
together. For them, interpack is quite simply the number one industry event, introducing innovations
along the entire value chain. For every individual link.

THE INNOVATIVE 8
OVATE
FROM GLOBAL CORPORATIONS TO FAMILY BUSINESSES.
Company size is not a criterion when it comes to attending the world’s
biggest trade fair for the packaging industry and all of its associated
processes. This is because all companies are looking for a solution – for
everything from production to warehousing, administration and logistics.
No matter whether they make sugar cubes, protein building blocks or
aerated concrete blocks – or the packaging for them.
VISIONARY TRADITIONS.
TRADITIONAL START-UPS.
Over the next few pages, we’ll be introducing you
to eight companies representing the eight
interpack sectors. We consider their approach to
be outstandingly innovative. Highly traditional
companies with new ways of thinking and
completely new ones identifying with old values.
Global players and start-ups. Processes,
packaging technology and ultimately the
packaging itself all have an important role to play
for all of them. Because packaging is part of the
product and the concept behind it. Because it
gives it a unique appearance. Because the
product simply wouldn’t make it from A to B
without packaging – or all of the above.
11
FOLLOWFISH is bound to have lots of
imitators soon. Smart packaging with
tracking codes could soon be standard.
12
FOOD
FOLLOWFISH
TRANSPARENT
BOX.
NUTRITIOUS IDEAS FOR THE FOOD SECTOR. The complexity of the food sector seems
incalculable - handling processes or logistics could fill up a trade fair all on their own. No other branch
has so much to do with damageable products, rules and regulations. Trends change at an alarming
rate and are very far-reaching. Consumers are becoming increasingly critical. This sector has the
responsibility of countering wastage and loss of food along the entire supply chain. To meet all of these
demands, the food sector is very much focused on innovative processes and intelligent packaging.
HOOKING A GLOBAL TREND.
followfish doesn’t see itself as a brand but as a movement “that stands for
transparency, sustainability and real flavour. A movement synonymous
with a different world of food. A world where producers have a face again.
A world where resources are not wasted but treated with care and handled
holistically and sustainably. A world where we live from yields again
instead of reserves”. These are the company’s own words. And everything
is so seamlessly traceable, such as every individual ingredient from the
tracking code that followfish prints on the packaging. The consumer can
see that the tuna on their pizza was line-caught by Mahmud Rizal in the
Philippines on 17/04/2015 and topped with Spanish olives in Meduno.
The sector needs pace-making ideas like these, and the ideas need a
focal point: May 2017 in Düsseldorf

BEVERAGES

TRUE FRUITS
HONESTY IN
A BOTTLE
RAISING A GLASS TO THE BEVERAGE SECTOR. No other sector has a
greater thirst for innovation than the beverage industry. Or as many
constants. Take the German Purity Law (Reinheitsgebot), for example.
Wine corks. The perennial question of whether to use PET, beverage
cartons made of composite materials or glass. The variety of packaging
materials and options is exciting for engineers and product designers –
and the challenges are considerable throughout the production line. End
users are increasingly demanding and critical. The environment and its
resources demand responsible behaviour. One little start-up had a big,
new idea – and seems to be doing everything right. true fruits from Bonn,
Germany.
TRUE FRUITS
– Pureed fruit and vegetables with no other ingredients. The company’s
founders brought the idea back with them from Scotland. There, they
made up for the lack of vitamins associated with their life as business
economics students (especially the nights) with an excessive
consumption of thick fruit smoothies available from every supermarket.
And they thought to themselves: “We can do that too, and we can do it
much better”.
SMALL COMPANY, BIG IDEAS.
When it started in 2006, the company had three
employees and a turnover of €40,000. By 2013,
the company had 19 employees and was making
€7.6 million. Can you really achieve that by doing
things properly? You bet! Honesty, purity, high
quality and transparency are the soul of the
business. Qualities that are expressed really
strongly through the packaging: ceramic-printed
cylindrical 250ml and 750ml glass bottles with a
purist design and screw top.
RECYCLING IS SO YESTERDAY.
These disposable bottles (45% recycled glass)
have lots of fervent fans, and it would break
their hearts to throw them into the glass bin.
They give them a second, third and even fourth
creative life as chandeliers, spice jars and bird
feeders. The company has responded to this
consumer enthusiasm for clever packaging
with its own clever upcycling range. There are
two stainless steel attachments – one for
pouring and one for sprinkling. So each
disposable bottle has more future uses than
many returnable ones.

CONFECTIONERY
HALLOREN
ROUND
AND ROUND
THE CONFECTIONERY INDUSTRY IS A STABLE SECTOR. According to the Federal Association
for the Confectionery Industry, Germans chomp their way through around 32kg of sweets per year
per head, and their appetite is growing. Across the world. The appetite for new ideas, flavours,
textures, colours, shapes and packaging is increasing, too. But costs are rising at the same time,
especially for raw materials. There is an excellent recipe for meeting these demands with a cool
head: new concepts, fresh ideas and efficient technology!
FRESH TRADITIONS.
The roots of the Halloren company go back to
1804. It has survived wars, name changes,
remodelling and expropriation and has always
known how to keep reinventing itself. By
blending an old craft with the current zeitgeist.
But the soul of the business orbits round a
melt-in-the mouth centre: the Halloren ball. It
reminds you of a button on the clothing worn
by “Halloren” guildsmen, and by now anyone
who isn’t from Halle or nearby will be asking
“what’s that?”
CHOCOLATE WITH SALT.
“Halloren” were members of the prestigious
brotherhood of salt workers – craftsmen. Their
job wasn’t a sweet one – they boiled the salt
from Halle brine. They wore guildsmen’s
clothing with heavy round buttons – the
inspiration for the Halloren balls, which were
invented by the Halloren VEB chocolate factory
in 1952 and became the most popular sweet in
the former East Germany. Today, you will find
Halloren’s huge confectionery assortment in
the well-stocked confectionery trade in 150
countries.

THE BALL IS ROLLING.
There is no question of standing still at Halloren.
They have some of the most up-to-date
production lines in Europe and they are all finelytuned for success. Halloren nearly went under in
1992, but 700 employees in the Confectionery,
Chocolate and Industry divisions are now
readying themselves for further growth – mainly
in Asia and North America. With strategic
takeovers and exciting innovations. Their
product development department is currently
working on refined, 100% vegan chocolate
creations. The charming Oh Là Là collection is
aimed at fashion-conscious young ladies. It
would be interesting to see what a praline
collection for the “male management in the
packaging industry” target group would look like.
interpack 2017 is bound to provide valuable
inspiration.

BAKERY PRODUCTS
LIEKEN
WATER, WHOLEMEAL, SOURDOUGH
AND TIME
SOMETHING’S HAPPENING IN THE BAKERY INDUSTRY! The wide variety of bread in Germany
is unique in the world. Since 2014 German bread culture even appears on the exclusive UNESCO
list of goods worthy of protection as world cultural heritage. In interpack’s home country there are
some 300 types of bread and 1,200 biscuits. In Germany some 83kg of bread and bakery products
are consumed per head – including croissants, pizza, frozen and home-baked products. The
industry is enjoying increasing growth with more and more being consumed on the move. After all,
what is better suited to a mobile, fast lifestyle than bakery products and what offers more choice
even 6,000 years after it was invented?

PIONEER AMONGST BAKERS.
Fritz Lieken not only deserves to be known as
the inofficial father of whole-grain bread, but
also as the official initiator of the industrialisation
of the baker‘s craft. Lieken passed his master
baker’s exam in 1919, took over a closed-down
bakery near Bremen in 1922 and in 1926 made
the fans of his wholemeal bread happy by
making it sustainable for longer by pasteurising
his products packed in tin foil. And because he
was also smart enough to build the first wire
mesh oven, Lieken was soon able to deliver his
Urkorn bread throughout the country and laid
the foundation stone towards making it one of
Germany‘s most famous brands.
100 YEARS OF INNOVATION.
In the last 20 years of its almost hundred year
existence, Lieken has tested various recipes for
company strategies. Today the Lieken Group is
a public limited company and 100% subsidiary
of Agrofert and is one of the market leaders in
the bakery industry – with packed fresh breads
bearing the German brands GOLDEN TOAST
and LIEKEN URKORN. Lieken also produces
bakery products for private labels and bake-off
stations as well as delivering daily in the early
morning hours to 21,000 retail businesses –
with its own IFS (food)-certified logistics
subsidiary Logi-K.
RISES WELL
VIRTUALLY 50% OF EXHIBITORS

DAILY BREAD.
Lieken works continuously to optimise its
products and its production across the entire
supply chain. Sustainable management of
energy and resources and use of regional raw
materials are firmly anchored in the company’s
statutes. A major goal has been achieved:
“CLEAN LABEL“ – all of the LIEKEN URKORN
and GOLDEN TOAST products are completely
without additives. This is an ambitious
undertaking. As ordinary and simple as bread
may appear, care and knowledge are required in
the manufacture, especially when it is industrially
produced – after all, not everything can be done
more quickly by using machines. If it needs time,
it needs time. Raw materials have to grow. Yeast
has to rise and dough needs to rest – however
great the pressure of innovation.

PHARMACEUTICALS
PUREPHARMA
PURE
CONVICTION
A HIGH DOSE OF INSPIRATION. interpack works on the pharmaceutical industry like a high-dose
vitamin shot. You won’t see such comprehensive, effective and long-lasting inspiration anywhere else.
Companies will find solutions for all their manufacturing, packaging and logistics requirements for highly
sensitive substances. The growing problem of product piracy – and naturally how to solve it – is also an
extremely important issue for interpack 2017. Innovative primary packaging is just one example.
SELF-TESTED.
Dissatisfaction can be extremely productive,
and the emerging Danish company
PurePharma proves just that. Its founders are
athletes who take their training seriously. Their
bodies require a large supply of nutrients, to
higher standards with a different make-up from
what is required by non-athletes – and in
greater volumes. Not seeing anything they liked
on the giant supplements market, the
founders decided to make what they wanted
for themselves: the purest micro-nutrients,
vitamins, essential fatty acids and proteins.
PHARMACEUTICALS ARE A SPECIAL CASE.
The international sale of highly specialised
pharmaceutical products is a science in its own
right. Countless approval and test procedures,
hygiene and packaging regulations have to be
adhered to and scientific research has to be
carried out, of course. It was a hard graft
for PurePharma before the company met its
own standards for purity, naturalness and
effectiveness: their benchmark was perfection.

LIFE AND WORK ARE AS ONE.
When you love what you do, there is no
boundary between work and play. Their HQ
overlooking the sea is also a fitness studio.
Their portfolio contains four products and a
self-test for establishing individual nutrition
requirements. This is healthy, lean growth.
Another PurePharma strength is its packaging.
Stripped down to the essentials, the powerful
design embodies the founders‘ inner attitude
and corporate philosophy: less is more. But
only when less means best.

COSMETICS
VISIONARY
SINCE 1921
GREAT OUTLOOK. Just one trip to the drug
store looking for shampoo along the endless
aisles of haircare products is enough to make
you realise that you do not have to worry about
the cosmetics industry. But there’s one thing
you still need to understand: if you don’t want to
end up looking old, you can’t do without
innovation. And sometimes the most innovative
people aren’t the youngest by any means.
IT‘S NOT JUST A MATTER OF APPEARANCE.
Back in 1921 in the peaceful Swiss town of
Arlesheim, nobody would ever have thought that
anthroposophy – human wisdom – would one day
be the foundation of an international company
producing cosmetics and remedies. Not even
Rudolf Steiner himself. The term anthroposophy
comes from the Greek “anthropos“, meaning
human, and “sophia“, meaning wisdom – and
together they denote a holistic view of human
beings going beyond biology and physiology. It
naturally has an impact on all areas of human life,
and not just the skin.
YOUNGER THAN EVER BEFORE.
Weleda was practising biodynamic agriculture
before “organic“ had even been invented. Even
today, all raw materials are cultivated in Weleda
gardens around the world according to
anthroposophical principles. “With smaller and
larger businesses, cultivation projects, cooperatives and pickers. It’s a simple equation:
the result can only be good if things are handled
with care at every stage of the production
process“. Which is why Weleda uses not only
glass and metal tubes for packaging its
products, but tubular bags and plastic tubes,
too - with a clear conscience.
WELEDA
HOLISTIC CORPORATE STRATEGY.
Weleda was a niche company, but went on to
become the originator of the natural cosmetics
boom. Its products are available from Arlesheim
to Alaska. Without the slightest blemish to
values or quality. Weleda’s holistic view of
human beings nurtures the company in
everything it does. Responsibility does not end
when a product is sold. They have an academy
for advance training in naturopathic cosmetics
and medicines, with courses for midwives,
doctors, complementary practitioners and
chemists. Weleda is committed to advocating
for or against socially relevant developments.
Weleda is currently campaigning with midwives
in Germany to improve their professional status
and security.

Sustainability has a massive influence on decisions to buy, whether it’s a
matter of long-term purchases, everyday items or pure luxury goods. Every
three years you can be inspired at interpack where you will see how the
non-food industry brings together economic and ecological interests under
one roof in an innovative way – across the entire supply chain. This is where
you will find answers to questions on trendsetting processes, cost-efficient
logistics, tracking technology and secure packaging appropriate to the
content. For manufacturers of fragile goods this is, of course, particularly
relevant.

KPM is a company where the symbiosis of past

33
34
LEAVING THINGS AS THEY ARE CAN BE HIGHLY INNOVATIVE.
KPM (Royal Porcelain Factory, Berlin) is one of the oldest established
artisan businesses in Europe – and one of the most expensive. The people
who work here are not just craftsmen but also artists and arcanists –
keepers of secrets, who guard their recipes for the “white gold” and their
knowledge of the finer details of the highly complex manufacturing
process like treasure. Every piece that leaves the factory proudly bears the
blue sceptre logo – as it did when the factory was founded by the Prussian
King Frederick II in 1763. It has experienced much since then – only
narrowly surviving.
MADE TO STAY.
Since 1763. This is how the company expresses a tradition that looks to
the future. The factory has been adding new recipes to its secret repertoire
since 2006: traditional shapes and designs blend and integrate with those
of contemporary visionary artists and products from other worlds – the
automobile industry, for instance. And emphasis is placed on the power of
communication and marketing through exhibitions, brand experiences
and a lively factory culture. All so that a unique cultural asset can live on in
precisely that endlessly slow, complex and irreplaceable artisan craft –
alongside industrial production processes. And what does KPM need to
ensure that these globally sought-after works of art make the journey from
the Spree to the Yangtze or the Hudson River unharmed and by a method
appropriate to the precious contents? Primary packaging. And secondary
packaging as a precaution. And maybe even tertiary packaging…

INDUSTRIAL GOODS
YTONG FROM XELLA
STACKED
LOW
THE INVISIBLE SECTOR. You can’t eat, drink, wear, process or use
what they make right away. It doesn’t provide any immediate consumable
services. Activity in the industrial goods sector is largely unseen, which is
a pity, as it is amazingly versatile. It creates essential products in often
exciting ways, the logistics of which is another amazing area all of its own
due to the sheer size of the product. One outstanding example: YTONG
aerated concrete blocks – a brand firmly set in the minds of all.

WHAT COLOUR IS AERATED CONCRETE?
That’s right: bright yellow. Who hasn’t seen the big yellow cubes with the
solid black logo? Aerated concrete masonry blocks produced by the
Duisburg, Germany-based company Xella are now a byword for this
building material. YTONG has been packed in the distinctive yellow film
since 1967, and the high profile of the brand proves that brand
management is a worthwhile activity, even in the industrial goods sector.
YTONG was invented in Sweden in the 1920s. Back then, it was called
Yxhults ånghärdade gasbeTONG – steam-hardened aerated concrete. It
helps to have baked a cake if you want to understand how YTONG stone
is made. Take some finely ground quartz sand, chalk and cement and
add a hefty dose of aluminium salt (recycled product) to act as a raising
agent, expanding the volume of the aerated concrete with tiny evenly
distributed bubbles. After it has set, the semi-solid raw blocks are
trimmed exactly to size and steam-hardened at 200°C. Once the material
is dry, air remains in the pores as a heat-insulator.
YTONG is identifiable immediately. The industrial goods
sector would do well to follow this recipe for this level of
brand awareness. Torsten Schinkel in the yard at the
plant in Brück, Germany.
37
INNOVATIVE AS EVER.
YTONG was already an eco-friendly building material before the term
even existed. The material is natural and the resources inexhaustible; it
is economic, lightweight, heat-insulating and durable, production is
energy-efficient and occurs in a closed loop. The production process
doesn’t release any pollutants into the air, water or soil. Processing
allows the highest degree of precision, meaning little waste. Recycling
and recirculating the yellow film and PE/PP plastics saved 444 tonnes of
CO2 in 2013 alone. According to data from the “Schutzgemeinschaft dt.
Wald“, a recognised nature conservation association under the Federal
Law for Nature Conservation, this volume is the equivalent to the weight
of 6,094 apple trees. Why not knock on the walls of your company
building? YTONG might be closer than you think.
YTONG has been packed in yellow film since 1967.
And a branded product entered the world of
industrial goods.

THE COMPONENTS SPECIAL TRADE FAIR BY INTERPACK turns interpack 2017 into a great
twin pack. Conveniently, this supplier trade fair for the packaging industry will be taking place at the
Düsseldorf exhibition grounds in 2017, making it an integral part of the leading trade fair interpack.
If you produce drive, control or sensor
technology or industrial imaging products,
COMPONENTS is the trade fair for you. And if
you manufacture handling technology,
industrial software and communications or
fully automated systems for packaging
machines, you are guaranteed to find your
target market at COMPONENTS.
INTERPACK DELIVERS AN AUDIENCE TO
SUPPLIERS.
Producers and suppliers of machine parts,
components, accessories and peripheral
devices and of course producers and suppliers
of packaging components and resources – all
will have the undivided and highly-qualified
attention of people attending the event.

NOT LETTING A SINGLE
GRAM OF FOOD GO TO WASTE.
INNOVATIONPARC is the show’s own forum for specific future-oriented
special topics. 2014 was totally devoted to SAVE FOOD, as the SAVE FOOD
exhibition was held here while international stakeholders were attending the
SAVE FOOD Congress at the conference centre (CCD South) at the same time.
1.3 BILLION TONNES PER YEAR. A slightly
bruised apple. Leftovers from lunch. A yoghurt
one day from its “best before” date. It all adds
up. It is unbelievable how much food goes to
waste throughout the world. Whether it goes off
somewhere along the supply chain before it can
be eaten – or whether excess and ubiquity
make people forget the importance of food.
THE PRODUCT OF
9,596,961 KM²
OF FARMLAND GOES TO WASTE.
Dr Ren Wang of the Food and Agriculture
Organization (FAO) of the United Nations made
it very clear in his speech at the SAVE FOOD
Congress in 2014: “Imagine if the volume of
food wasted and lost around the world were a
country: it would be bigger than China. Food
would be produced on its farmland that nobody
would actually eat. This country would be the
biggest consumer of water for irrigation and the
biggest producer of greenhouse gases. Nobody
could live in such a country“.
INTERNATIONAL ALLIANCE AGAINST LOSS AND WASTE.
The amount of hunger around the world makes such loss and waste even
more shocking. This is why Messe Düsseldorf and interpack created the
SAVE FOOD initiative in conjunction with the Food and Agriculture
Organization (FAO) of the United Nations and the United Nations
Environment Programme (UNEP) in 2009. It brings public stakeholders
along the entire value chain together in unique and effective ways. On an
international scale. Where politics and economics meet - and the place
where they meet is innovationparc.
AGENT PROVOCATEUR BETWEEN POLITICS AND ECONOMICS.
The food industry, trade, packaging and logistics – numerous dials that
can be adjusted to optimise our approach to food and combat hunger. We
need to change the political framework. Improve the agricultural
economy. Improve our control of demand and consumer behaviour and
make production sustainable. Not least of all, we also need to come up
with clever and sustainable packaging concepts. Where better than
interpack? You will hear international experts speak on the subject. And
see innovative concepts that help to expand our environmental
awareness. You can join now: www.save-food.org
ANNUAL GENERAL SAVE FOOD MEETING.
In May 2015, the creators of the SAVE FOOD initiative held their annual
general meeting with industry partners, NGOs and research organisations
at the headquarters of Nestlé AG in Vevey, Switzerland. The demand for
attending the event was much higher than the number of places available.
This shows the urgency of the issue and the success of our initiative.

The major topic at innovationparc in 2014 was the SAVE FOOD initiative. You can only
feed a growing population with dwindling resources through innovation.

SHARE
IN THEIR
SUCCESS!
INTERPACK is indisputably the number one
international trade fair for the packaging industry
and all related processes. But the concept is too
successful not to share it with others. Thanks to
our partner trade fairs around the globe, we can
be there with you, helping you expand into
growing markets. There is always a Messe
Düsseldorf event being held somewhere around
the world. Particularly in emerging countries, the
demand for foodstuffs and packaging machines
is an indicator of increasing prosperity – and
business opportunities for you! The easiest way
to find the websites of our partner trade fairs is to
visit interpack.com/worldwide.

97%
of people attending the last
interpack say that the trip to
Düsseldorf was more than
worth it.

South of the city centre of Düsseldorf and just behind the
historic Old Town, the Medienhafen district is now home
to the media and new architecture – and some
spectacular restaurants and luxury hotels, too.
DESTINATION
DÜSSELDORF
50
ENGINE FOR
INNOVATION
TURBO FOR
BUSINESS
DÜSSELDORF IN MAY would be worth a trip on its own – even without
interpack. Some Düsseldorf residents lovingly call their state capital
Petit Paris, and other original inhabitants have never heard it called
that. But it would be a mistake to reduce Düsseldorf’s charm to its
stylish flair und elegant shops along the Königsallee (the Kö). You would
miss a lot: Düsseldorf‘s arts scene and collections are world-famous.
Düsseldorf‘s new architecture has global standing. And the city is still
unbelievably green. Experience the fresh green of May for interpack.
The Rhine winds its most spectacular curves round Düsseldorf, with
beaches and wide meadows in the city centre. It is absolutely possible
to walk along the Rhine to interpack from your hotel in the city or cycle
there on one of the public rental bikes – that’s how close the exhibition
grounds are to the centre. A taxi takes 15 minutes from the airport at the
most. Even if a whole seven days isn’t enough to see everything at
interpack, you have to include a little bit of Düsseldorf itself. Here are
some of the interpack exhibitor service team‘s personal favourites.

You can’t complain of a lack of
eating choices at any level in
Düsseldorf. There are 300 bars,
clubs and restaurants in half a
square kilometre of the historic
Old Town alone.
DINING AT THE MEDIENHAFEN.
_Pascal Versen
Düsseldorf doesn’t just do historic – it also does
young and new. Famous architects, Frank Gehry
for example, have run rampant in the former
docks. And their designs have ensured that lots
of creative industries have settled here. There
are also quite a lot of rather good restaurants.
Roberts Bistro was already there when the docks
were still an industrial wasteland, and I think it’s
still the best restaurant in the area. Good, loud
and always full. You have to get used to rubbing
shoulders with other diners at the narrow
tables....

A MUST: PUB CRAWL ROUND THE HISTORIC
CENTRE.
_Thomas Dohse
Superlatives are of course never far away when
you’re mad about a city, BUT the longest bar in
the world is still an amazing fact. It doesn’t get
much better than a pub crawl from one Altbier
bar to another in early summer – ideally with
brewery attached. It’s easy to get to know the
locals, as Düsseldorfers “love to chat“.

MUNCHING ON WORKS OF ART.
_Carolin Claßen
There is a small French confiserie in Carlstadt
that could even be mistaken for a jeweller’s – its
little cakes and macaroons are so charmingly
beautiful. And unbelievably delicious! You can
sit outside in the fairytale rear courtyard. And
forget about deadlines and calories. The café is
called Pure Freude (Pure Joy). And it’s just that.

HIDE AWAY IN THE ROSE GARDEN.
_Marie-Luise Schläfke
I’d really rather not tell you this. The loveliest
place in Düsseldorf is the rose garden behind
the Stadtmuseum – which, by the way, is also
totally underrated. If you’re lucky, you’ll find
yourself all alone amongst the old trees, mossy
walls, roses, sculptures and the little green
parrots that set up home there in the 1960s. It
sounds like the ancient forests of Costa Rica.
ARCHITECTURE TOUR.
_Thomas Franken
I’ve nothing against the French baroque or
water-spouting gods on the Kö-Graben, but the
best thing on the Königsallee is completely new!
In my opinion, the Kö-Bogen has finally made
Düsseldorf an architecture destination. It forms
a spectacular trio with the Schauspielhaus and
the Dreischeibenhaus!

RELAX IN KAISERSWERTH.
_Christian Grosser
Founded in the year 700, this is the oldest district
of Düsseldorf. It’s an idyllic location - right by the
Rhine, a five-minute taxi ride from the exhibition
grounds and 20 minutes from the city centre. A
great place for sitting under the tall chestnut trees
to have a beer after work and raise a glass or two to
successful deals. Maybe at the Burghof, watching
the sun go down.
A STROLL THROUGH FLINGERN.
_Angelika Spies
If I’m looking for a gift or something special to
wear – or just inspiration, I don’t go into the city,
but out to Flingern, Derendorf or Unterbilk.
There are so many young designer shops there.
And the exhibitions at the KIT are always great
– it’s a museum between the tunnels beneath
the amazing riverside promenade along the Old
Town. And if I’m by the Rhine, I sit down on the
tower steps and watch the sun go down.
