RND Automation Debuts Live KANGA Pouching at PACK EXPO 2026

Chicago – September 25, 2026 -- RND Automation will run a live vertical pouching demonstration and unveil an expanded packaging-equipment lineup at PACK EXPO International 2026, scheduled for October 18-21 at McCormick Place in Chicago. The company will occupy Booth N-5115 in the North Hall, positioning itself as a supplier of configurable automation platforms rather than one-off custom machinery.

KANGA Poucher runs live throughout the four-day show

RND's KANGA Poucher will operate continuously at the booth, packaging a multitool that attendees can take home. The packaging web for the demonstration is supplied by Amcor. The company says the live run is designed to show a repeatable packaging platform that can flex across different products and package formats without requiring ground-up engineering.
