ESMA exhibits at glasstec 2016 together with ten and at the K show with three member companies. The member pavilions showcase the newest screen and digital decoration supplies and technologies for different application on glass and plastics.
With the increasing range of applications that integrate speciality and functional printing on glass, the composition of ESMA pavilion at glasstec (20-23 September 2016 in Düsseldorf) changes as well. In comparison to the last exhibition in 2014, three new companies are participating and two joined the pavilion specifically because of the stronger group image. “Glass is regaining its importance for printing and not only in terms of surface decoration for flat and hollow products. Today, glass becomes the perfect match for printed electronics unlocking new applications and new possibilities. The revolution sparked by ultrathin glass and non-contact printing techniques means that also digital inkjet has a lot to offer in the glass industry,” says Peter Buttiens, CEO of ESMA.
ESMA organises its pavilion for the fourth time and the three islands in hall 12 feature following member companies: Gallus-Heidelberg (booth C49-2), KIWO (D49-4), Machines Dubuit (C49), Pröll (C41-1), PVF (D49-2), RUCO (C41-2), Saati (C49-1), SPS Technoscreen (C24), Sun Chemical (D49-3) and Tiflex (D49). Although the majority of those companies specialise predominantly in screen technologies, everyone interested in the advancements of digital inkjet printing can step by the ESMA booth (D49-4) to talk to our experts from this domain and gain updates on The Inkjet Conference. One of the test printers from The Inkjet Training course is on display at the ESMA booth, as well.
At the world’s no. 1 fair for plastics and rubber, K (19-26 October 2016, Düsseldorf) our pavilion in hall 4, C63, hosts Gallus-Heidelberg, Marabu and Sun Chemical demonstrating their expertise in respectively equipment, inks and coatings for industrial printing.
Everyone who passes by the ESMA booths at both shows can count on specialist advice offered by the Expert Team and directed for specific market sectors, including topics such as colour management and profiling for industrial decoration, speciality chemistry, advanced materials or inkjet system design. Visitors will also receive updates on the upcoming Direct Container Print (27-28 November 2017 in Düsseldorf) and GlassPrint (29-30 November 2017 in Düsseldorf) conferences, the latter co-organised by ESMA and “Glass Worldwide” magazine.
