Europe in Brussels at the end of September.With re- gards to the Labelexpo events outside Europe in Chi- cago and Shanghai, we are convinced that they fulfill an important need in the regions concerned, especial- ly since global traveling is expected to still be hit in 2021. If these Labelexpo shows would not take place, our peers in these regions would have no alternative.” Flint Group Sues Trend Offset Printing Flint CPS Inks North America LLC, formerly known as Flint Group North America, which is the North American subsidiary of Luxembourg-based Flint Group serving the commercial printing industry, has filed a multi-count lawsuit in the United States District Court Central District of California — Southern Divi- sion against Trend Offset Printing Services, Inc. The charges include breach of contract, account stated and conversion. The lawsuit seeks monetary damages and other forms of relief. Headquartered in Los Alamitos, California, the defen- dant is a national printer serving magazine, catalog, direct mail and retail advertising segments, whose ser- vices include prepress, press, finishing and mail and distribution of printed materials (sale circulars and printed inserts). This action arises out ofTrend’s breach of this supply agreement whereby Flint Group provided Trend with inks, flat blankets, sleeves, fountain solutions,web con- ditions and press washes. The current balance owing on Trend’s account with Flint Group is nearly $4 mil- lion. The substantive actions leading to the claims in the complaint pre-date the COVID-19 crisis.
