MIAMI, FLORIDA, December 20, 2002 – Converting equipment manufacturers will again have a high-profile at Graphics of the Americas 2003 (GOA 2003) as record numbers are set to exhibit. Accuratech Machine Industries, Inc., Bielomatik, Crown Roll Leaf, Inc., Day/Varn International, Double H Plastics Inc., Korber PaperLink North America, and Mark Andy Inc., are among the more than 70 convertering equipment manufacturers who will be displaying the very latest innovations in the industry. "It’s a win/win situation for attendees and exhibitors," said Chris Price, Vice President and General Manager of GOA 2003, "Our exhibitors recognize that more than 40% of our attendees are from Latin America, where the profile of the commercial printer is also involved in converting to some degree. And the large numbers of converting exhibitors means our attendees benefit from competitive pricing. For anyone planning purchases for 2003, there is no better time or place to discover, compare and buy converting equipment than at this show." Graphics of the Americas is produced annually by the Printing Association of Florida, Inc., an industry trade association.
