PPMA Show 2026: Make Lifting Easier with TAWI

TAWI will be exhibiting at PPMA Show 2026, showcasing lifting solutions designed to make everyday material handling safer, easier and more efficient. The team will demonstrate equipment for handling sacks, boxes and reels, with applications relevant to food, pharmaceutical, processing and packaging operations.

The event takes place at the NEC Birmingham from Tuesday 22 September to Thursday 24 September. Visit TAWI in Hall 5, Stand D30, where we will be sharing the stand with Piab.

At the stand, visitors will be able to see vacuum lifting solutions in action. Demonstrations will include sack lifting for ingredient handling and production processes, box lifting for packing and palletising tasks, and reel lifting using a TAWI mobile lifting trolley. These solutions are designed to help operators lift, move and position materials with greater control and less physical effort.

Repetitive handling of ingredients, cartons, packaging materials and reels can be demanding for operators and can affect the efficiency of production workflows. TAWI lifting solutions can help reduce the strain associated with manual lifting while supporting smoother material movement between goods-in, processing, packaging and dispatch.

For all manufacturers and operations, efficient handling is important when moving ingredients, packaged products and production materials throughout the facility. TAWI equipment can be adapted to suit a wide range of applications, helping businesses find a lifting solution that fits their load, workspace and workflow requirements.

Visitors to PPMA Show 2026 are invited to bring their material handling challenges to Hall 5, Stand D30. The TAWI team will be available to discuss specific applications and demonstrate how smarter lifting can support safer, more productive operations.
