From November 25–27, MANA-ECO proudly participated in the 2025 SWOP (Shanghai World of Packaging) exhibition held at the prestigious Shanghai New International Expo Centre. As one of Asia’s most influential packaging industry events, this year’s SWOP expanded to 70,000+㎡, bringing together 950+ global leading enterprises, 40,000+ professional visitors, and thousands of innovative solutions shaping the future of green packaging.

For MANA-ECO, this event was more than an exhibition — it was a meaningful opportunity to connect with global partners, showcase our biodegradable tableware, and deepen international cooperation in sustainable packaging.

A Grand Exhibition Focused on Green, Efficient, and Smart Packaging

SWOP 2025 emphasized three major industry pillars:sustainability, efficiency, and smart technology. Exhibitors from around the world presented next-generation packaging materials, automated machinery, environmentally conscious product innovations, and new manufacturing solutions.

As a company deeply committed to reducing plastic pollution, MANA-ECO showcased our latest range of bagasse biodegradable tableware, which attracted heavy foot traffic and strong interest from buyers, distributors, and brand owners.

Welcoming UK Guests: A Highlight of Our SWOP Journey

During the exhibition, we were honored to invite two important guests from the United Kingdom — Abraham and Jamal — long-term partners and strong advocates for environmentally friendly food packaging.

Their visit wasn’t limited to the exhibition booth. After SWOP, we arranged a special trip to our manufacturing factory, ZX Packing, located in Jinhua.

A Field Visit to ZX Packing: Professional, Efficient, and Inspiring

At the ZX Packing facility, our guests toured the showroom, inspected production lines, and observed the full manufacturing cycle of bagasse tableware — from raw material pulping to thermoforming, trimming, and packaging.

They were particularly impressed by:

1. A Complete Product Portfolio

The sample room displayed hundreds of models of bowls, plates, clamshells, and food containers, all produced with consistent quality and smooth finishes.

2. Advanced Manufacturing Equipment

ZX Packing has invested heavily in technological upgrades, including new-generation machinery designed to enhance efficiency, reduce energy consumption, and improve precision in product molding.

3. Their Global Reach and Innovation Strength

Today, ZX Packing supplies products to 80+ countries and regions, provides eco-friendly food packaging for hundreds of millions of consumers, and holds over 120 patents — demonstrating strong innovation capability and international competitiveness.

Abraham and Jamal expressed strong cooperation intentions, stating that the visit helped them gain deeper confidence in product quality, production capabilities, and the long-term partnership potential.

Why This SWOP Experience Matters for MANA-ECO
