FINAT, the international association for the self-adhesive label industry announces that it has signed a marketing/promotional partnership agreement with Labelexpo organisers Tarsus – which is particularly valuable for the biennial European shows – that extends now to 2019. Labelexpo is being staged at Brussels Expo from 24-27 September. FINAT can be found in Hall 11 at stand P40.

Promoting collaboration

FINAT acts as an 'umbrella organization', bringing together the international supply chain of the self-adhesive label industry. The association’s stand will welcome the European network of the national label associations (now being represented by a National Association Board) and the L9, the global association that brings together the leading regional associations for the self-adhesive label and narrow web converting industry. The L9 was founded at Labelexpo Asia in Shanghai in 2009.

The FINAT stand is also the ideal backdrop for (potential) FINAT members and Labelexpo delegates to meet up and share experiences. The association’s stand will be a hub of activity throughout the show. 

Making the most of the show 

FINAT has produced a Labelexpo Planner for all attendees, with a list of activities taking place each day during the show. It will also feature the work that FINAT is undertaking for the labeling industry, and highlight the activities and products of FINAT members exhibiting at the show. The booklet will be available at the entrance of the exhibition centre, alongside the Labelexpo catalogue.

Over at the FINAT stand, visitors will get in-depth information and advice on a variety of topics, including environmental issues, testing methods, liner recycling, as well as education and training.

Recognizing talent

The winners of the 2013 FINAT Label Competition will  be exhibited at Labelexpo, and will benefit from a promotional initiative across Europe. That will extend later to those entries that also succeed in the World Label Awards, particularly those adjudged the 'Best of Best.
