Tetra Pak, a world-leading food processing and packaging solutions company, is showcasing its end-to-end ice cream processing capabilities at the Indian Ice Cream Congress & Exhibition (IICE) 2026, being held in Chennai from 10 to 12 September 2026.
Under the theme ‘Designed for Growth. Engineered for Efficiency,’ Tetra Pak is showcasing solutions designed to address some of the most important priorities for new-age and established ice cream manufacturers today: maximizing overrun control, improving production efficiency and increasing output while maintaining product quality and enabling better returns on investment. The booth is designed around the complete ice cream journey, from idea and product development to manufacturing excellence and business growth.
Parmod Kandwal, processing director, Tetra Pak, said, “For an ice cream manufacturer, growth is ultimately about getting several things right together, developing products consumers want, achieving the right yields, maintaining consistency and building operations that can scale profitably. At IICE this year, we are demonstrating how Tetra Pak brings these pieces together. Our portfolio combines product development expertise with advanced processing technologies including global innovations as well as Made-in-India solutions, enabling us to support businesses from their first formulation to high-capacity production. The theme of the event – ‘Designed for Growth. Engineered for Efficiency’ – reflects exactly that ambition: helping our customers turn product possibilities into stronger, more efficient and scalable businesses.”
From idea to market-ready product
At IICE, Tetra Pak is showcasing the capabilities of its Product Development Centre (PDC), demonstrating how it supports customers from concept creation and formulation development to trials and market-ready products. Visitors will be able to explore PDC-developed formulations and product concepts, market samples, consumer and category insights, and possibilities across different ice cream formats and textures.

The solutions enable manufacturers to maximize overrun control, improve production efficiency and increase output while maintaining product quality and enabling better returns on investment.
