Advanced automation: the engine of growth in packaging lines in Mexico
The Mexican consumer packaged goods industry is undergoing a significant transformation, driven by the need to modernize and automate its production processes. According to the PMMI 2025 report, automation is positioned as the main driver of investment in packaging machinery, enabling companies to address challenges such as rising labor costs, the difficulty of hiring and retaining qualified personnel, and the need to comply with increasingly stringent regulations.
Why is automation key in 2025?
