Submit an Article

The Packing Machinery publishes practitioner-written, data-backed articles about packaging machinery — how machines are specified, bought, and made to run. If you have first-hand engineering or procurement experience worth sharing, we want to read it. Accepted articles are published under your name with a short author bio and a link to your professional profile.


We never publish or sell your email. Submissions are reviewed by an engineer, not a content mill.

What gets published

  • First-hand experience — you ran, bought, engineered or maintained the machines yourself
  • Verifiable substance — real numbers, named machine classes, honest trade-offs; claims get fact-checked
  • 800+ words that help a buyer or engineer decide something
  • Plain language — no SEO filler, no AI-generated fluff (we can tell, and we decline)

What we decline

  • Press releases and product announcements — that is advertising, not experience
  • Paid placement or link schemes disguised as articles
  • Anything we cannot fact-check against a source

How review works

  • You submit — lands in the editorial queue instantly
  • Editorial read within 5 business days — fit or not, you get an email
  • Fact-check pass — claims traced to sources; we mark what we could not verify
  • Publish under your name — with bio, and our standard styling
