PETCORE EUROPE in partnership with KÖR Group

Navigating PET Packaging and Food Contact Transformation

19 March 2026 | Budapest, Hungary | In person | 09:00–17:00

PETCORE EUROPE, in partnership with KÖR Group, invites PET packaging leaders from across Central and Eastern Europe to a focused, one-day, in-person conference in Budapest.

This event is designed for senior industry professionals who need clear direction to navigate regulatory change and implement it effectively across their organisations.

Across one intensive day, the conference will examine how EU-level and local regulatory developments are reshaping PET packaging and food-contact materials in the CEE region. The focus is on practical implications for the value chain and on how businesses can anticipate change, adapt with confidence, and move forward in an increasingly complex regulatory environment.

  • Regulatory perspectives from EU and local institutions relevant to the CEE market
  • PETCORE EUROPE’s evolving role, priorities, and initiatives across the PET value chain
  • Industry viewpoints from companies active in Central and Eastern Europe
  • KÖR insights on data, testing, risk reduction, and practical implementation
  • Structured discussion, Q&A, and networking with peers and experts

Who should attend

Professionals active across the PET packaging value chain in Central and Eastern Europe, including converters, recyclers, brand owners, and solution providers, as well as organisations involved in food-contact materials, circularity, and compliance.
