Inkjet and digital label/packaging print seminar

On Jan 2, 2013 285

The growing applications for digital print in the label and packaging arena are today a focus for both brand owners and the converting industry and present both benefits and challenges. Troubleshooting these new pathways coupled with leading-edge success stories are the key focus of AWA Conferences & Events’ Ink Jet and Digital Label/Packaging Print Seminar 2013 which takes place in Scottsdale, Arizona, USA, 29-30 January 2013, co-located with IMI’s annual Ink Jet Conference.

The program for this established annual seminar that alternates between Europe and the US represents an opportunity for brand owners, converters and industry suppliers to gain an in-depth update on the increasingly wide base of available options from digital offset to UV inkjet, thermal transfer and EB imaging; the pre-press platforms that underlie the print capabilities; substrates, both paper and film; and inks.
Speakers include experts from many disciplines for example, Dr Dene Taylor, president, Specialty Papers & Films Inc; Lou Lovoli, VP strategic partnership & marketing, Hammer Packaging Corp; Victor Gomez, VP narrow web products, Durst Image Technology; Tom Erickson, plant superintendent, The Label Printers; and Sean Skelly, VP/GM, EFI Jetrion. Leading printing substrate supplier UPM is the seminar’s Platinum Sponsor.
The global business environment in which the industry is operating will be examined in a review of the labeling and product decoration markets from AWA Alexander Watson Associates’ president and CEO Corey M Reardon.
The seminar is now open for registrations which may be achieved online where a full seminar prospectus, and details of all AWA Conferences & Events forthcoming events and published market reports are available.
