Package printing at Labelexpo Europe 2015

Package printing will have a bigger, more prominent position at this year’s headline Labelexpo event than ever before, with new technology and exhibitors bringing the latest equipment for printing and converting flexible packaging and folding cartons to the show.

The combined value of the flexible packaging and folding carton markets is estimated to be worth around 180 billion USD, and has long been an object of desire for those targeting additional revenue streams and business opportunities with both existing and new customers. That is why so many exhibitors at Labelexpo Europe 2015 will have some form of slant toward package printing, whether they be a supplier of materials, inks, coatings and ancillaries, or the presses themselves.

Attendees similarly have a keen interest in these opportunities. This is not a new phenomenon but is becoming more pronounced as both the industry and the show develop.

'Package printing is now central to the label printing community and Labelexpo experience,’ states Lisa Milburn, managing director of Labelexpo Global Series. ‘With 53 percent of our total exhibitors showing products for flexible packaging and 32 products featuring products for folding cartons, Labelexpo Europe offers all printers the most extensive showcase of package printing solutions available.’
