Aimed at label and package printers, brand owners and label designers, the seventh Labelexpo India attracted 7,927 visitors to Pragati Maidan, New Delhi on October 29-November 1. Nearly 200 exhibitors participated in product launches and installations, which led to numerous deal signings on-site.
Product launch highlights included new flexographic plate and equipment from DuPont Packaging Graphics, HP Indigo’s WS 6800 digital press, Multitec’s two new narrow-web label printing presses - Ecoflex VSi Servo and Ecosmart, Nilpeter’s Indian-made FB3300S press with gravure unit, Omet’s XFlex X4 8-color all-servo press and Rotatek’s Smartflex UV flexo press.
"Labelexpo India has been very successful for Avery Dennison,” says Jitesh Mehta of Avery Dennison. “A large number of customers visited our booth who were keen to know about our offerings in durable, home and personal care and pharma segments. The 14 innovations we showcased this time earned the spotlight at the exhibition. Labelexpo gives us a platform to demonstrate to customers how we can help them grow."
The Brand Innovation Summit also successfully debuted. Held in partnership with HP Indigo, the half day conference program was attended by several top brands including ACG Pharma, Cipla, Coca-Cola, Dabur, GSK, ITC, Morepen, Nestle, Reckitt Benckiser and Siemens, among others. The session focused on the role and importance of label and package printing in a brand’s design and ultimate sales performance in the Indian marketplace.
“We enjoyed the four extremely busy days at Labelexpo India,” says Pravin Varshney, UPM Raflatac. “The atmosphere was great and we had a pleasure to host a successful gala dinner for over 300 customers, industry partners and other stakeholders. Labelexpo is definitely the best place to meet the people working in the labeling industry and to see where the business is moving. We are seeing overall healthy, organic growth in India and across South Asia due to a rapid increase in pre-packaged food products, pharma sector growth and the massive appetite for personal care products. In addition, Indian companies are increasingly becoming aware of environmental issues and that’s why our Label Life concept was of interest to both label printers and end-users. We’re proud to work in India along the same principles of world-class technology, quality and performance, environmental sustainability and top class customer service as we do everywhere else.”
