Organisers of the Sign Africa are launching Africa Print 2010, the first commercial digital print show for the African continent.
Practical Publishing, organisers of the internationally respected Sign Africa events and publishers of Print Update, the fastest growing online print publication in Africa, has announced the launch of Africa Print 2010, the first commercial digital print show for the African continent.A dedicated digital print exhibition, Africa Print will take place from 8 - 10 September, 2010 at the Sandton Convention Centre in Johannesburg.
This significant new event will be a showcase for the entire digital print process, featuring from sheetfed A3 machines up to Grand format digital equipment and will include both suppliers and manufacturers of digital printers, finishing equipment, software, media and consumables.
With the rapid development in printing technology, digital printing can now offer flexibility and convenience with the same level of quality as traditional offset machines. This has resulted in an irreversible industry trend, where digital is not necessarily replacing traditional printing processes but rather being integrated into commercial print houses as a complimentary element of the business system.
Africa Print will provide an opportunity for printers looking to expand their business with the potential of digital production. The show will focus on the innovative and cost-effective capabilities of short-run, variable data and personalised print as well as providing visitors with the latest developments and trends in the global industry.
An extensive national and international marketing campaign will ensure that visitors to the show will include print industry representatives as well as end users and influential decision makers. Africa Print will aim to educate and inspire all visitors on the powerful capabilities and commercial benefits of digital print, in its entirety.
