Introduction 

INTERPHEX Week Tokyo 2026 brings together pharmaceutical and biotechnology leaders focused on improving efficiency, quality, and scalability in manufacturing. 

Yet one challenge continues to limit performance across many production lines: hidden inefficiencies. 

Time loss, excessive manual handling, and inconsistent operating speeds often go unnoticed, but their impact is measurable. 

At the IL Group booth, we make these inefficiencies visible through data and show how they can be reduced. 

Turning Hidden Inefficiencies into Measurable Improvements 

At this year’s exhibition, IL Group will demonstrate how labeling operations can be optimized through automation and reduced reliance on manual processes, featuring our latest SMCL Series labeling systems. 

 

Free On-Site Line Efficiency Check 

At the booth, we will offer a simple on-site diagnostic of your current labeling or packaging line.
In just a few minutes with our specialists, you will receive insights into: 

• Where time and labor are being lost 

• Which processes are suitable for automation 

• How SMCL systems can improve throughput and stability 

 

You will receive immediate, practical insights based on your current operation. 

A dedicated leaflet explaining this quick diagnosis service will be distributed exclusively at the booth. 

SMCL Series: Designed for Smart Automation 

The SMCL Series is engineered to support pharmaceutical manufacturers facing labor shortages and increasing compliance requirements. 

Key highlights include: 

• Flexible integration into existing production lines 

• Stable performance for high-mix, low-volume production 

• Automation-ready design for long-term scalability 

Our team will walk you through real use cases and help identify how the SMCL Series fits into your operation. 

Contract Packaging Services 

In addition to our labeling technologies, IL Group also offers contract packaging services through IL Contract Packaging, specializing in GMP compliant secondary packaging for pharmaceutical products. Our operations are designed to support high mix, low volume production environments, including commercial, clinical trial and sample packaging. Capabilities include visual inspection, precision labeling, kitting, and final packaging, all managed under a controlled quality system. By integrating these services with our functional labeling technologies, we deliver integrated solutions that enhance product protection, maintain quality, and support a seamless transition from development to commercialization.
