Paris, Porte de Versailles, France

When innovation pushes back the limits of printing

Although manufacturers in the graphics industry push back the limits of printing everyday by innovating in processes (digital, laser, etc.), and media (consumables, multimedia, tablets, mobile phones, etc.), the biennial GRAPHITEC exhibition, where the industry meets, must highlight all these changes. This is why they decided that the watchword of the next exhibition would be NO LIMIT. 11,000 visitors expected – printers, ordering parties, design professions and others – will like this forward-looking event.
