Labelexpo expands to Japan

As part of the expanding Labelexpo Global Series, Label Summit Japan will take place in Tokyo in April 2006. The Summit will combine a high level conference on the impact of world label trends on the Japanese label industry, supported by a tabletop exhibition.  The Labelexpo organizers expect 300 senior delegates to attend the conference to hear the latest developments in label technologies and markets – with many of the leading industry suppliers taking part in the exhibition including Avery Dennison, Gallus, HP, Mark Andy, Nilpeter, and Raflatac.
Roger Pellow, Labelexpo Executive Director, said: “We are very excited to be moving into Japan.  The country is known globally for its fast moving, highly technological lifestyle – and of course 52 per cent of the Asian label market is in Japan.  Label Summit Japan will give Japanese printers the opportunity to learn about global advances in label technologies, how trends outside Japan will affect Japanese printers, and to meet with both local and international suppliers to discuss the future of label printing in Japan.  Our Label Summits have proved to be great success across the world, and I am very much looking forward to the event.”
