FESPA – where corrugated takes off

 

FESPA will introduce a new Digital Corrugated Experience at FESPA Global Print Expo 2018 at Messe Berlin, 15-18 May 2018.

The Digital Corrugated Experience is an educational and experiential area, which will showcase the commercial and production advantages of digital print for corrugated packaging and retail display applications, aiming to highlight to packaging converters and box-makers the benefits of integrating digital technology into their production mix.

It will address all elements involved in printing corrugated materials, including: substrates; workflow solutions; digital printing technologies; materials handling; primers, inks, coatings and varnishes; and cutting and folding. Digital print complements traditional analogue methods, enabling converters and display makers to expand their offering with prototyping, short-run, versioning or customisation of boxes and displays. 

Located in Hall 5.2 at Messe Berlin, the new area will combine short educational Print Corrugated conferences with business-building discussions with suppliers including HP, Lamina, Sun Automation, Inca Digital and BCS-Autobox.

Visitors will also gain inspiration and knowledge from a showcase of digitally printed corrugated applications, such as shelf-ready and transit packaging boxes, pallet surrounds, promotional packaging and POS displays, supported by like-for-like printing comparisons, samples and explanations helping visitors to evaluate commercially available solutions.
