Powtech Technopharm (Nuremberg, 23-25 September 2025) is the international trade fair for process engineering experts and a tailor-made technology platform for the pharmaceutical and life science industries. Its honorary sponsors are the APV (Working Group for Pharmaceutical Process Engineering) and the VDI Association of Process and Chemical Engineering. At this working trade fair, experienced companies and innovative start-ups present a wide range of technological solutions for the production and processing of powders, granulates, bulk solids, fluids and liquids for industries of all kinds. Powtech Technopharm is the gateway to the European market and provides a comprehensive look at the latest developments and industry-specific trends. For exhibitors and visitors from numerous user industries, including the chemical, pharmaceutical, food and feed industries, building and non-metallic minerals, ceramics, glass, mechanical engineering and plant construction, recycling and the environment, as well as cosmetics and batteries, Powtech Technopharm provides the perfect platform for sharing information on process and unit operations and GxP-compliant production. Powtech Technopharm is held in Nuremberg in September, with a break every third year. The next edition in conjunction with PARTEC Congress and co-located with Fachpack will take place from 23 to 25 September 2025.

From 23 to 25 September 2025, Nuremberg will again become the hub where everything revolves around technologies for processing powders, solids and liquids. In just over six months from now, Powtech Technopharm will relaunch following its scheduled break. Visitors can already look forward to their old favourites as well as some new ideas and concepts. Participants will also benefit from the co-location with FachPack, the European Trade Fair for Packaging, Technology and Processes. ParTec, the prestigious international scientific congress, will be held alongside Powtech Technopharm again in 2025. The Powtech Technopharm team is busy with the preparations. The trade fair looks set to be a successful event, with around 600 exhibitors expected in Nuremberg in September. Around 80 percent of the exhibition space has already been booked. “The current floor plans are available online. Companies that would still like to exhibit are welcome to get in touch with us so that we can organise the best possible space for them”, recommends Marianny Eisenhofer, Director of Powtech Technopharm. A new feature this year is that

The Leading International Processing Trade Fair for Powder, Bulk Solids, Fluids and Liquids, 23 - 25 September 2025 in Nuremberg, has a new look. Not only has the brand been revamped, the concept has also undergone adjustments. With the new subtitle “International Exhibition for Process Operations”, Powtech Technopharm is preparing to be the meeting place for a multi-sector community in 2025. Starting in 2025, the former Powtech will operate under the name Powtech Technopharm, and with this new refinement it will provide the perfect platform for the growing pharmaceutical and life sciences industry in particular. “Powtech, as the core of mechanical processing technology for powders, granulates and bulk solids, will of course remain,” explains Heike Slotta, Executive Director Exhibitions. “This core will be expanded to include Technopharm and pharmaceutical process technology for solids and liquids. We are thus specifically addressing the pharmaceutical industry as one of our top three visitor sectors and are also focussing on the GxP-compliant manufacture of pharmaceutical products in solid, semi-solid

Happy visitors to Nuremberg: POWTECH and PARTEC hotspot for international experts in process engineering and the elite in particle technology research. More than 9,500 trade visitors travelled to POWTECH from locations in Germany and abroad again this year, with international visitors making up about 40 percent of the total. In four exhibition halls, 553 exhibitors from 27 countries (43 percent international) presented the latest solutions in process engineering and analysis for bulk solids, powder and liquid processing. As part of the top-level supporting programme, speakers gave 55 presentations in which they discussed current challenges and specific solutions for the industry with the trade visitors. A particular highlight was the PARTEC Scientific Congress, with an impressive 509 participants and top-level lectures on the current state of particle technology. The new Chair is Dr Lutz Mädler, of the Leibniz Institute for Materials Engineering in Bremen, who succeeds Dr Arno Kwade of Braunschweig University of Technology. Heike Slotta, Executive Director Exhibitions at NürnbergMesse, is happy: “POWTECH, this

POWTECH, the International Processing Trade Fair for Powder, Bulk Solids, Fluids and Liquids, is expanding under a new braning its importance as the technology platform for the processing sector, Starting in 2025, POWTECH will operate under the name POWTECH TECHNOPHARM, and with this new enhancement it will provide the perfect platform for the growing pharmaceutical and life sciences industry. POWTECH is consistently fine-tuning its efforts to promote the process engineering sector and adopting the current trends of deglobalization and re-Europeanization, all of which underlay its decision to rebrand. POWTECH is a technology trade fair for everyone involved in processing and analysing powders and solids in the manufacturing industry, using mechanical engineering and other engineering processes, regardless of whether the raw materials or the intermediate or end products are in powdered, solid, paste or liquid form. That covers many sectors, especially the chemical and cosmetic industry, food and feed, pharmaceuticals and batteries. The TECHNOPHARM component will be dedicated to pharmaceutical process engineering, which intersects with mechanical process engineering

The supporting programme for POWTECH 2023, the international processing trade fair for powder, bulk solids, fluids and liquids on 26–28 September 2023, is more diverse than ever. POWTECH 2023 promises to be especially interesting. As always, numerous German and international companies will showcase their latest solutions for processing technology. The trade fair will also explicitly cover the integrated processing of solids, semi-solid products and liquids. The trade visitors in attendance come from numerous sectors, primarily chemicals and cosmetics, food and feed, pharmaceuticals and the battery segment. In combination with the PARTEC Congress, the trade fair delivers sound scientific expertise in particle technology. 3 days of concentrated expert knowledge But it is not just the exhibition and congress that draw the crowds. The wide-ranging supporting programme on all three days of the fair also provides a powerful impetus for innovations in the diverse segments involved in processing bulk solids. The programme also includes some brand-new features: The VDMA Special Show in Hall 2, Stand 2-204, offers insights into the process chain

POWTECH 2023 is launching with a new tagline. Heike Slotta, Executive Director Exhibitions, explains why “Processing of Bulk Solids” on its own has not accurately reflected the focus of the trade fair for some time now. For most experts in process engineering, the integrated processing of powders, fluids and liquids is part of their day-to-day business. The new tagline deliberately focuses on project managers, production heads, and also process and product developers in the sectors that the visitors to POWTECH represent. All can benefit from the official expansion to the range of products and services. Many visitors associate “Processing systems for powder and bulk solids” with the trade fair name POWTECH. The trade fair is now repositioning itself as the “International Processing Trade Fair for Powder, Bulk Solids, Fluids and Liquids”. Is POWTECH now dedicating itself to entirely new topics? Slotta: Let me put it this way: We are taking the range of topics that POWTECH has been covering for a long time and working them into our communications. Dealing with liquids has complemented the POWTECH topics of powder and bulk solids processing for decades. Many of our exhibitors
