Responding to the fast-moving world of consumerism

Lier, Belgium – Xeikon, a leading global innovator of digital printing technology, will present its latest innovations at Labelexpo Asia 2019. After a highly successful Labelexpo Europe in September of this year and an equally successful attendance at Printing United in Dallas in the US in October, Xeikon is committed to reaching out to the printers and converters in Asia Pacific and therefore attending this key event in Shanghai. Xeikon has a long history of manufacturing and implementing both toner-based and UV inkjet printing systems with open workflow software and application specific consumables. The company is set to bring its unique expertise and a creative portfolio of digital printing solutions and applications to provide the printers and converters in the Asian label and packaging communities with new ideas and guidance for business growth. Showcasing its entry-level digital label press, the Xeikon 3030, the company has taken a booth (P30) in the Flexpack Asia Arena.

Klaus Nielsen, Director Xeikon APAC, states, ”We are seeing an increasing trend year on year in this region for marketing on packaging. As the consumer’s purchasing power grows in the Asian markets, brand owners will be looking for fresh ways to differentiate their product lines with creative, high quality and distinctive labels as well as innovative packaging for shelf impact. By developing added value label solutions and sustainable flexible packaging application, Xeikon is responding to what we call ‘customer-driven innovation’. We are attending Labelexpo Asia to help guide the region’s potential customers looking to enter new markets such as food labels or labels for wines, spirits, health & beauty and pharmaceuticals. We continue to develop our product portfolio for diverse and global markets to meet the current challenges in our fast-moving world of consumerism.”
