Among these Chinese exhibitors – over half, 81 – were exhibiting at Labelexpo Europe for the first time. These included Flora, Hongsheng, iFiN, KingT, Jwei, Jindali, Caisheng, Youhua, IECHO, Dangs, Yozho and Furi.

 

Many Chinese exhibitors view Lablexpo Europe as the launchpad for Western markets, while others were exposed to the event through other Labelexpo platforms. Several companies signed up for more global events, as the Chinese exhibitors showcase their technology on a worldwide platform.
