since 2009
– the fascination of packaging printing
Durban, the South African city on the Indian
Ocean, became the seventeenth venue to host
the successful Image-to-Print roadshow in March
of this year, as the show made its first stop on
the African continent.
Image-to-Print focuses on package printing and
conveys its fascination in presentations and discussions,
through visits to local printers or other
supply chain partners and in direct exchanges
within small groups of experts.
The roadshow highlights all the technological
aspects of the process, starting with an image
and ending with the finished print product, for
example printing tools, printing and laminating
machines and inks. But it also focuses on the
major business topics for the industry such as
market trends and strategies. Image-to-Print
informs brand owners, local printers and the
downstream processing industry about everything
of relevance to package printing. The
Image-to-Print Workshops examine in detail the
requirements and conditions of the local market.
Janoschka set out on this round-the-world roadshow
with partners for the first time in 2009.
Experts and specialists have been part of the
crew ever since, providing insights into global
and local developments in gravure printing.
Gravure and flexographic printing are the leading
technologies for package printing. Presenting
these technologies in all their aspects and showing
their added value for the printing industry –
and for individual print products – is the objective
of the Image-to-Print Workshop.
