MIAC 2026 in Lucca: paper and tissue industry show

MIAC is the leading international gathering for the paper, board and tissue converting industry. Every October, Lucca brings together machinery manufacturers, ancillary equipment suppliers and professionals from paper mills and converters in a show that spans the full production cycle, from pulp preparation to paper finishing and handling. Beyond the exhibition floor, MIAC runs a free technical conference programme with simultaneous Italian-English interpretation. Sessions cover energy efficiency, automation, predictive maintenance and sustainability practices applied to papermaking and tissue production. With around 250 international exhibitors and more than 6,000 industry visitors, MIAC is a key meeting point for buyers, mill managers, process engineers and technical directors seeking to upgrade equipment and discover new solutions for paper and tissue lines. Admission is reserved strictly for paper industry professionals and requires online or on-site pre-registration subject to approval. The organisation verifies professional profiles and issues a personal, non-transferable entrance ticket valid across the three show days.
