Labelexpo Europe Exhibit Space Exceeds 2007

March 18, 2009
On 23-26 September this year, Labelexpo Europe will return to Brussels Expo. Established as one of the largest events for the label, product decoration, web printing, and converting industries, exhibition space for this year’s show is now exceeding that of the record breaking 2007 event (with more than six months to go).

In addition to launching an array of new products in six halls, many exhibitors are focusing their attention on providing solutions that can help converters and brand owners make the most of the current economic climate. Many converters are already reaping the rewards of improving production and flexibility, adding value and looking towards new opportunities. An example of this is digital technology, which will account for about 15 percent of the exhibition space.

Appearing for the first time
This year, a number of new exhibitors will be making their debut appearance at the show including:
* Radior: An ink supplier with an emphasis on package printing (paper, cartons, labels, film) with its inks providing a metallic sheen based on carefully selected bronze and aluminum metal pigments. Its products have excellent transfer properties on all type of substrates.
* Elmis: A supplier of advanced technology for personalization, post-press, and industrial marking. It is a world-renowned machinery manufacturer for the labeling industry.
* Screen Europe: One of the world’s largest manufacturers and suppliers of system components for the prepress and printing industries. Its large range of equipment includes workflow systems, RIPs, proofing systems, platesetters, digital offset and digital inkjet printing presses.
* Herma: Provides labeling systems and solutions for precision labeling. Its range starts with simple manual dispensers and series machines through to tailor-made solutions for individual high-tech labeling tasks.
* MDC Daetwyler: A market leader in the development, manufacture and distribution of prepress systems for packaging and illustration rotogravure printing.
* Axode: Provides camera-based systems dedicated to identification, print quality and integrity control of documents. Its products can easily be implemented on all printing lines, inserters, wrapping machines and finishing lines.
* Heights: An international leader in the design, manufacture and supply of plate processors and associated equipment to the graphics arts industry.
* MS Stutz: Agents for Pacom, the South African press manufacturer.

Additional new features
This year there will be a host of new feature areas at Labelexpo Europe including:

The Digital Printing Experience: Leaders in digital printing will gather in this area to showcase the latest in digital technology. Visitors will see the best pick of digital presses, as well as digital prepress software, platemaking and post-press finishing, with live demonstrations running continuously. In addition the pavilion will lay host to a series of seminars and panel discussions, which will focus on the present and future of digital printing and its role in the development of the label industry worldwide.
