Excitement is building for the return of Labelexpo Europe 2022, the world’s largest event for the label and package printing industry. With over 600 exhibitors already confirmed, many of whom are first-time exhibitors, Brussels Expo will spring into life from the 26th to 29th April to safely showcase the dynamic and diverse marketplace driving innovation across the industry.

As momentum builds for the show, trends are already beginning to emerge, with this edition set to see a huge focus on digital launches from key digital players.

HP, Xeikon, Domino, Fujfilm, Konica Minolta, Epson, Durst and Canon are already confirmed to exhibit, showcasing their technology and collectively driving this demand for digital.

Lisa Milburn, managing director of Labelexpo Global Series, said: “Despite the pause on in-person shows caused by the global pandemic, the market-wide momentum building for Labelexpo Europe 2022 shows that the global label and packaging printing industry is still as vibrant as ever and is now bolstered by a renewed enthusiasm. Exhibitor participation is very encouraging, not only in the number that are so keen to reconnect in person, but in the global calibre of press manufacturers, offering the industry a chance to truly reconnect and do business.”

Mirroring the quality of exhibitors at the show, Labelexpo Europe 2022 is set to host an international audience of printers, brand owners and designers owing to a new dedicated VIP Concierge Service. This along with the continued support of the world's leading printing associations, will bring leading label and package printing converters face-to-face with the industry’s best suppliers.

Registration opens next week with more details to be released on the final frontier of the automation feature, the brand-new digital embellishment trail, the schedule of master classes and other exciting features planned.
