Welcome to the September issue of Factory and Handling Solutions Magazine.


I


t’s hard to believe we’re already heading into September, and what better way to start the month than with a trip to The PPMA Show! The FHS team will be heading to the show to catch up with our clients, contributors


and, of course, our readers. We’re always excited to get out and about at industry events, meet the people behind the businesses we work with and see what’s new across


the processing, packaging and manufacturing sectors. PPMA is a great opportunity to discover the latest innovations and technologies fi rst-


hand, as well as hear what businesses are working on and what challenges they’re looking to overcome. We’ll be keeping our eyes peeled for plenty of new developments to bring back to you, so keep an eye on our social channels for updates from the show. In this issue, we’ve also got plenty to get stuck into, we will be looking at the future of


labelling: challenges and opportunities for brands and co packers with Sovereign Labelling Machines (P.24) and automating food service: applying factory-proven motion engineering with Rollon (P.18) among many other forward thinking features this month. As always, I hope you enjoy this month’s issue, and if you’re heading to PPMA too, make sure you come and say hello!
