Running alongside the exhibition and making its debut — not only at Labelexpo Americas 2018 but also for the first time in the Americas — is the Au- tomation Arena, a demonstration of two automated press lines for conventional and digital production, covering job creation right through to pre-press, printing, finishing and invoicing. Another key feature of Labelexpo Americas 2018 will be the TLMI Ecovillage, designed to raise aware- ness of environmental issues in the sector.The associ- ation’s Ecovillage will be a designated space on the show floor that will feature a comprehensive directo- ry of exhibitors who are committed to best sustain- ability practices and environmental stewardship. The TLMI Ecovillage will also feature daily sessions that address the current state of sustainability within the North American label-printing supply chain and the most pressing issues that industry converters face today related to environmental compliance. Matrix waste from exhibitors’ booths will be baled and collected by Green Bay, Wisconsin-based Convergen Energy to be made into fuel pellets after the show’s closure.The pellets are an alternative to coal with a lower carbon and overall emissions’ footprint compared to fossil fuels. There will also be a daily session tackling the big myths surround- ing sustainable packaging and current issues of in- terest to converters. As in previous years, the 2018 edition offers a edu- cational conference program with 12 sessions and three expert-led master classes run in association with the Label Academy. These will cover: 1) shrink sleeve technology, markets and applications; 2) inks, coatings and varnishes, their application in modern narrow web converting operations and legislation; and 3) management information systems (MIS) and workflow automation. Also taking place on the evening of September 25 is the annual Label Industry Global Awards, which recognizes key achievements in the label and pack- age printing sector. The four award categories cover innovation, sustainability and individual pioneering contribution to the industry.
