Package Printing Innovations Highlight CPP EXPO 2012

PARAMUS, N.J.—CPP EXPO Show Management announced that Bobst Group USA, Mark Andy, Goss International, and North American Cerutti will anchor the package-printing portion of CPP EXPO - The Cleveland Show, taking place April 18-19, 2012 at the I-X Center in Cleveland, Ohio. Complementing these vendors will be converting/finishing suppliers, including: Rotomec, Nordmeccanica, and Davis-Standard.

“Providing attendees in this converting-dense region with an opportunity to see, feel, and touch machinery is key to their overall experience,” said Leo Nadolske, president of CPP EXPO. “And, bringing this right to their own backyard makes it a much more cost-effective, time-efficient educational opportunity.”

With the region’s demographics boasting dozens of CPGs and converting operations within a 100 mile radius, exhibitors are excited at the prospects. “We are intrigued with the regional approach of CPP EXPO. There is plenty of business in Ohio and the surrounding states,” said Michael D’Angelo, Vice President - Business Unit Web Fed, Bobst Group North America.

Giancarlo Caimmi, Vice President of Nordmeccanica, confirmed those sentiments: “Being ‘local’ presents opportunities for us to meet with full buying teams. It becomes a mutually beneficial learning experience—we like this approach.”

This is CPP EXPO’s inaugural regional event and will lead to the major machinery event to be held in Chicago/Rosemont April 23-25, 2013. CPP EXPO in Cleveland will have two full days of open exhibits; morning hours will also feature educational programs covering all converting disciplines. “Call for Presentations” is now open and accepting applicants, visit www.cppexpo.com/call4papers.cfm and submit details should you be interested in participating in future conference programs.
