The 40th anniversary edition of Labelexpo Europe closed on a high note, its organizers report, saying it was the largest, most international show held to date. A total of 693 exhibitors participated at the event, which took place September 24-27, 2019 at the Brussels Expo in Belgium.
Spread over nine halls and covering almost 40,000 square meters of floorspace, up from 37,600 square meters in 2017, the show presented the largest offering of label and package printing technologies and live demonstrations ever seen at a Labelexpo. This included the fast growing areas of hybrid printing, flexible packaging and automation. Poor weather didn’t deter 37,903 visitors from 140 countries flocking to the four-day show – a substantial increase on 125 in 2017. India, China and Japan were especially well represented with large visitor delegations. Eastern Europe also showed a stronger representation compared to 2017, in particular Croatia, with a 51% increase, Lithuania (36%), Romania (25%), and Russia (14%). Brazil also saw a 14% increase in visitors compared to 2017.
