Avery Dennison hosts successful technical training in Italy

The technical event, Born Artists, Made Printers, took place on November 12 at OMET’s Innovation Park in Molteno (Lecco).

More than 80 Italian label printers took part in the event, organized by Avery Dennison Italia in collaboration with OMET, Sun Chemical and Tecnocut, which included a full day of technical training combining theory, practice and direct interaction with industry experts.

The initiative was created to offer Italian label printers a dedicated training and discussion session on the main daily challenges of the production process and the best practices for achieving consistent, high-quality results over time.

The event saw an outstanding turnout, with more than 80 technicians and production managers from across Italy—clear proof of strong interest in technical updates and knowledge-sharing opportunities.

The day was structured into two complementary sessions. The first, more theoretical part featured contributions from specialists representing Avery Dennison, OMET, Sun Chemical and Tecnocut, who shared their best practices on materials, inks, printing technologies and die-cutting.

The practical session then brought those concepts to life directly on the press, thanks to three OMET lines running live. Participants, divided into three working groups, observed how to manage and solve common production challenges—such as handling different substrate behaviors, printing complex shapes, handling multipage labels, and achieving optimal drying of inks and coatings.

The technical sessions proved highly concrete and valuable, enriched by hands-on demonstrations and practical advice that can be directly applied in everyday production.

At the end of the event, participants had the chance to exchange impressions and explore specific topics during a light lunch set up inside the Innovation Park, which was transformed into a space for technical dialogue and professional networking.

The initiative confirmed the strong synergy and collaborative value among the four partners, who successfully delivered a high-level training day by combining their expertise and complementary perspectives in the label printing industry.
