After an absence of 2.5 years, Europe’s main flagship of the label industry, Labelexpo Europe, is set to take place from 26-29 April 2022 in Brussels. The world’s largest label and package printing show again promises to showcase everything that is required for an ever-changing, vibrant and still growing sector.
‘The quest for perfect print’ will be an adventurous journey around the latest developments in technology, the brand-new digital embellishment trail, live demonstrations, masterclasses, sustainability and recycling initiatives, and other exciting new features. Moreover, the show is the perfect opportunity for converters to reconnect with peers and suppliers and do business face-to-face again.
Lisa Milburn, Managing Director of Labelexpo Global Series, said: “Exhibitor participation is very encouraging, not only in the numbers that are so keen to reconnect in person, but in the calibre of industry suppliers offering the industry a chance to truly reconnect and do business.”
