CPP EXPO 2013 and PRINT 13 to Colocate

Published: April 20, 2012

PARAMUS, NJ | The significant industry exhibitions will come together for the first time when CPP EXPO 2013 colocates with PRINT 13 at Chicago’s McCormick Place September 8–12, 2013.

CPP EXPO, the Converting and Package Printing Expo, is produced and managed by H.A. Bruno. Show president Leo Nadolske says, “Our initial goal for this year’s show was to move to the fall and stay in Chicago, so the concept of this strategic alliance…was the ideal solution! Beyond moving away from a very crowded spring timeframe, it provides the ideal scenario for our package printing and converting event since attendees will be able to see and explore all the very latest in digital, prepress, and design technologies and products that are so vital to their customers’ brand marketing strategies.”

Ralph Nappi, president of the Graphic Arts Show Co. (GASC), producer of PRINT 13, adds, “Based on what we have learned from attendees seeking package printing and converting equipment, and hearing the support of the manufacturers, we’re convinced that the timing is right to meet the needs of the growing package printing and converting industry by partnering CPP EXPO 2013 with PRINT 13.”

Attendees of either show will gain access to the combined offerings of both events with a full entry pass to all of the exhibits, which will span both the North and South Halls of McCormick Pl. Additionally, show goers will also have the opportunities to participate in an expanded array of educational programming and to take advantage of a multitude of industry peer networking opportunities provided by the colocation of the two events.
