Big names such as Hewlett Packard, Roland DG, BPIF Cartons and DuPont UK are set to exhibit at this year’s Print Innovations

Print Innovations runs alongside the Packaging Innovations show, which takes place on 27-28 February at the Birmingham’s NEC.

Andrew Pearce, chief executive at the IPIA, said: “It is great to see how Print Innovations has grown over the last year, and also the commitment it receives from some of the biggest names in the industry. We are therefore delighted to be supporting the show in 2013, and will be doing so again in 2014.

“It provides a unique opportunity for the printing industry to meet with brand owners, retailers and marketers. Having a print event right at the heart of such a well-established packaging show means that all those involved in packaging have the chance to embrace the very latest print developments. That’s why the association urges all its members to get involved.”

Print Innovations also features the inaugural Big Print Debate (sponsored by KBA), with Unilever and Waitrose on the panel; plus a compelling programme of learnShops, including presentations from Hewlett Packard and Landa – which will unveil the exciting commercial realities of nanography.

Print Innovations, now in its second year, is co-located with Packaging Innovations.  As a result, it offers a unique opportunity for print and labelling companies to meet all the big brand owners, retailers and marketers. The co-location of the two shows also works well for the show visitors; print fundamentally influences the way a brand is presented, many packaging innovations are driven by print, plus the worlds of promotion and packaging are very much intertwined.

Roy Burton, managing director at Impression Technology Europe, said: “We see Packaging Innovations and Print Innovations as a fantastic opportunity to meet new potential customers. We could not be happier that we have chosen to exhibit once again at the NEC show.”
