INFOFLEX 2022: Flexo Industry’s First Exhibition Of The Year Reuniting the package printing and converting industry af- ter three years, INFOFLEX 2022 is back in-person with a full-size exhibition, and the first of 2022. Held March 14-15 at the Fort Worth Convention Center in Fort Worth, Texas, the central location has proven to generate substantial at- tendance, making it a can’t-miss event for exhibitors and attendees. The theme of INFOFLEX 2022 is “Building Relation- ships. Forging Connections.” It speaks to INFOFLEX’s ability to bring together members of the package printing industry to discover new technologies that improve print quality and increase efficiency in every part of the produc- tion workflow. Leading up to the 40th anniversary of the annual exhibition, companies are eager to network face- to-face with both decision-makers and end users. “I can feel the excitement building around the event,” said FTA Director of Membership and Business Develop- ment Jay Kaible. “After a successful, sold-out INFOFLEX at Fall Conference last October, everyone is eager to get back together again to kick off the new year with a more comprehensive event that includes a larger show floor and more time for networking. The Fort Worth location has always been a successful destination for INFOFLEX—both attendance-wise and for exhibitors.” “The show floor at INFOFLEX 2022 is already 92 per- cent sold. Only 15 booths (10-feet by 10-feet) are available to FTA members ($3,800) and non-members ($7,600). Companies interested in exhibiting should contact Jay Kai- ble at (631) 737-6020 ext. 120, jkaible@flexography.org or visit infoflex.flexography.org . INFOFLEX 2022 will be co-located with FORUM 2022, FTA’s annual technical conference, which takes place March 13-16 at the Omni Fort Worth Hotel in Fort Worth, TX.
