Label&Print, co-located with Packaging Innovations and Empack, is an essential event for leading label and print suppliers to come together to showcase their latest techniques and finishes, explore fresh ideas and new concepts, make deals and push the industry to its creative apex.
The Label & Print Show, brought to us by Easyfairs, is now an established part of the label industry’s calendar. Here the concept is around communications between different parts of the supply chain as well as with the brand owners. You are not likely to see a press running here but instead will have access to a whole rolodex full of contacts who will no doubt be able to help you acquire new business or help streamline your existing business.
