Hong Kong, China, July 18, 2008 --(PR.com)-- The China label market has achieved a growth rate of 15%-20% over the last ten years, higher than the global market growth rate of 3-6%. The South China (Pearl River Economy Delta) progresses by leaps and bounds and is the largest region for the printing and packaging industry. Statistics show that there are a total of 1,000 label printing enterprises and over 10,000 packaging companies in the region. A large number of well-known international and local suppliers of label materials cluster in South China. Guangdong Province and Hong Kong alone accounts for 67% of the country’s total label printing production.

“The China International Exhibition on Label Printing Industry” (also known as “Sino-Label”) is one of the largest and most influential international exhibitions of its kind in China covering a spectrum of label printing, decoration, and processing and technology application. It will be held again during March 3-6, 2009 at China Import and Export Fair Pazhou Complex, Guangzhou. The show will cover label printing machinery, bar code printer, RFID label machinery, anti-counterfeit technology, label security solutions & applications, self-adhesive materials, testing equipment & accessories, label design, etc. It will cater for the entire industries of label printing, decoration, manufacturing, processing and application in China. High-Level conferences and symposia will be arranged to facilitate information and technological exchanges.

The fair will once again be the ideal platform to tap the lucrative market potential in China label printing industry.

“Symposium on Labeling and Packaging Technology for Daily Chemical Products” and “Symposium on Labeling and Packaging Technology for Food Products” were held concurrently with Sino-Label 08 to enhance the technological exchanges and cooperations in Label printing and packaging industries. Topics of the symposia covered the development trends of global labeling market; opportunities & challenges in China market; the standards for labeling and packaging of daily chemical and food products in Europe and America; technology and applications in smart labels, flexo printing, total coding, inkjet digital printing; 100% automation inspection technology, application of label materials; in-mold labeling technology, etc. Experts and quality speakers introduced the latest development trends and challenges of the label printing and packaging industries, shared their successful business experiences with over 150 audiences.

China’s existing per capital label consumption is only 0.5m2-0.6m2, far less than that of other countries which reached 10 m2 +. Vast development opportunities hence can be found in the China label printing market. Applications of label in China have already been used widely in food, drinks, pharmaceuticals, cosmetics, electronic products industries, etc. With the increasing shortening of product life cycles in the above industries, demands for various kinds of labels are increasing significantly. It is estimated that in the forthcoming years, China’s label printing industry will grow at a rate of 30%+.
