Welcome to PACK Challenge - An exciting, real-world, end-to-end competition that challenges students to innovate, collaborate, and develop essential industry skills through creativity, engineering, & hands-on experience!



As PMMI continues to work with industry leaders to build the pipeline of skilled future employees in the packaging industry, the PACK Challenge aims to promote and inspire students to learn more about the packaging sector.
PACK Challenge is a real-world, end-to-end competition at PACK EXPO International that requires collaboration, creativity, innovation, process, design, build, programming, debug, marketing, and field installation knowledge – all put to the test in a competition format!
High school teams from registered schools. Each team should be comprised of mechanical, electrical, programming students along with some marketing representatives (feel free to work smith here). Teams must be led by a designated school advisor, such as a teacher or program coordinator. Schools can register multiple teams, but spots are limited, so lock in yours early!
Designate a school advisor—a teacher, mentor, or program lead will be the go-to contact. Complete the registration form and fill out basic info: school name, location, advisor contact details, and program focus(engineering, robotics, etc.). Hit submit and wait for a confirmation email with your school code.
Get tips on crafting a strong submission, and insights from past teams. Learn about the judging criteria, required elements, and key deadlines to keep your team on track.
