Husky showcases solutions that strengthen food security through localized manufacturing, supply chain resilience and affordable packaging at Gulfood Manufacturing 2026

DUBAI, UAE – Husky Technologies™, a pioneering technology provider enabling the delivery of essential needs to the global community, is returning to exhibit at Gulfood Manufacturing 2026, taking place November 3-5 at the Dubai World Trade Center, Hall 2, Booth B2-4. At the show, Husky is showcasing integrated PET, packaging, closure, and proactive monitoring solutions that help regional food and beverage producers strengthen supply chain resilience by enabling efficient, reliable localized manufacturing. By connecting technologies, services, and expertise across the production lifecycle, Husky empowers manufacturers to build more agile operations and respond confidently to changing market demands.

“In today’s environment, we recognize that food and beverage manufacturers across the Middle East region are facing supply chain uncertainty, rising operating costs, and pressure to maintain reliable access to essential products,” said Wassim Labban, Husky’s Executive Vice President, Sales and Marketing. “As we connect with brands and producers at Gulfood Manufacturing, we continue to see growing interest in localized packaging production as a practical plan to strengthen supply chain security and reduce risk. Integrated production, resilient performance, and affordable packaging are increasingly interconnected, making local production an important enabler of both business continuity and long-term growth.”

Technology built for regional priorities 

As material costs and supply chain demands continue to shape regional production decisions, Husky is demonstrating a range of technologies, solutions, and services to support resilient, streamlined, sustainable operations. Technology highlights include: 

  • HyPET®6e and HyPET®NX6 advanced PET preform molding systems designed to deliver scalable, high-performance, and cost-efficient production, enabling the production of lightweight preforms and bottles, increased rPET processing capabilities, and reduced long-term manufacturing costs for all applications and production volumes.
  • Lightweighting solutions that enable manufacturers to turn resin savings into a competitive advantage by reducing material use by up to 10% while maintaining structural integrity and part quality. Combined with aftermarket programs that extend tooling life and enhance existing assets, these solutions help reduce resin usage and drive long-term cost savings.
  • High-performance HyperSync® and Hylectric® packaging molding solutions designed so machine, hot runner, and mold controller operate seamlessly together, ensuring precise melt stream management from injection through filling across a wide range of applications. This approach is ideal for producing thinwall food packaging, thickwall containers, pails, buckets, cutlery, and processing bio-resin materials.
  • Latest closure technologies that help manufacturers improve performance across the entire closure production process. HyCAP PRO™ delivers high-precision molding at exceptional speeds to maximize output and productivity, while HyCAP™4 supports lightweight and tethered closure applications, improving efficiency, durability, and overall manufacturing economics.
  • With Husky Advantage+Elite™, manufacturers gain access to advanced performance monitoring that provides the insights and support needed to optimize localized production with confidence. Husky experts identify potential issues early and proactively contact customers with recommendations and corrective actions before problems disrupt productivity. By combining real-time monitoring with expert guidance, troubleshooting, and process optimization, Husky enables customers to successfully achieve uninterrupted, high-performance production.

Serving regional application needs 

Husky enables brands and producers serving the Middle East to deliver packaging that is lighter weight, contains higher percentages of rPET, and that meets ongoing sustainability legislation – for a diverse range of high-demand applications like water, dairy, CSD, juices, sauces, condiments, and edible oils – while reducing energy consumption and meeting superior performance and safety standards.  

“Whether the priority is reducing material usage, increasing rPET content, optimizing production, or maximizing uptime, regional packaging producers need solutions that work seamlessly together,” said Abdallah Kharboutly, Husky's General Manager, MENAT and CA. “By integrating Husky technologies, services, and expertise across the packaging value chain, we help manufacturers strengthen supply chain continuity and resilience in the face of fluctuating material costs and evolving market challenges. This enables our customers to achieve more predictable outcomes, adapt to changing market demands, and strengthen their competitive position.”
