Jade Grace, Managing Director, Labelexpo Global Series, said: “Flexo, digital and hybrid press technology has grown significantly in the Chinese label and packaging market over the last few years. The growth of the digital label press industry has been accelerated by the increasing market demand for short-runs, customization, multi-SKUs, and shorter delivery times, but also because of increasing cost pressures faced by converters. Labelexpo South China 2024 will be the perfect opportunity to see this growth really come to life.”
Kevin Liu, Group Director China, Labelexpo Global Series commented: “Labelexpo South China 2024 will present to converters of all sizes the very latest technology that is transforming the label and package printing market. We look forward to seeing all visitors and exhibitors at the show in December.”
