From 14 – 16 March 2023 the corrugated and folding carton industry, as well as the printing community, will gather for the 6th edition of CCE International at the Munich Trade Fair Centre in Germany. Incorporating the offerings of InPrint Munich, industry professionals can benefit from the enticing Open Seminars and InPrint Munich Conference, deep-diving crucial industry topics. The show will be co-located to ICE Europe, the world’s leading exhibition for the conversion of flexible, web-based materials.

 Next month, CCE International 2023, including InPrint Munich, will open its doors again, covering a wide array of topics ranging from efficiency, productivity, and automation in the corrugated and folding carton sector all the way to topics revolving around printing technology.

“CCE International, together with InPrint Munich, has a great programme in store for 2023! We are very proud to present such an innovative curriculum this year, thanks to our partners. We are already looking forward to everyone capitalizing on the opportunities it presents,” states Patrick Herman, Event Director of the Converting, Paper and Print Events, on behalf of RX. The exhibition attracts international industry experts from a wide range of sectors, including production and processing of corrugated and folding carton, food, pharmaceutical, transport and logistics, packaging and printing.

CCE International Open Seminars

CCE International facilitates top-tier networking and allocates industry-specific knowledge via its Open Seminars programme. Here, the focus is set on the latest trends and topics in corrugated and folding carton production and processing.

Key expert speakers will be leading this programme. For instance, Highcon Systems will be diving into real case studies demonstrating how Highcon’s digital cutting and creasing solutions can take paperboard packaging and display to the next level, and by doing so, are able to boost efficiency and capacity, while simultaneously reducing the environmental impact.

Another expert speaker from the technology company EFI will look at unlocking new possibilities with corrugated e-commerce packaging. With the insights found in their research, EFI will educate how well-branded corrugated ecommerce packaging can unlock new possibilities and help elevate perception.

Decades of inkjet innovation and evolution have yielded an established and trusted technology. The best industrial inkjet implementations pair system and application requirements with robust, reliable methods for establishing, monitoring and maintaining printhead nozzle health. Meteor, a global leader in electronics, software, tools and services for industrial inkjet will present the state of the art on this important topic.

• Seiko Instruments GmbH’s session “Integration in Inkjet” with key speaker Aliasgar Eranpurwala, Head of Department:

The Lab2Fab projects in the inkjet industry are at a current status and Seiko is trying to reduce the time from concept to reality. As a printhead manufacturer, there are ways to improve this process.
