Labelexpo Europe Rescheduled

Tarsus Group, the organiser of the Labelexpo Global Series, announced on Tuesday that Labelexpo Europe 2022 has been rescheduled for next year. Labelexpo Europe is now taking place from the 11th to the 14th of September 2023.

Industry Challenges

The decision to reschedule Labelexpo Europe was made after close consultation with exhibitors, associations, and the wider industry. Many of whom are directly impacted by the shortage of materials triggered by the pandemic.

Long lead times have been disrupting supply chains across Europe and escalating shortages. The growing situation in Ukraine has further exacerbated the problem.

Insurmountable

Acknowledging the support from the industry and the commitment to the event, Labelexpo Managing Director, Lisa Milburn said, “we have been working tirelessly to overcome the supply chain issues,” and that it was a very difficult decision to make.

“Unfortunately, these issues have proven to be insurmountable at this stage, so we feel that rescheduling is the responsible decision to make.” – Lisa Milburn

FINAT managing director, Jules Lejeune, voiced his company’s support for the decision to reschedule Labelexpo Europe. He stated that the shortages and geopolitical uncertainties meant there were too many hurdles to overcome.

“We admire our longstanding partner Labelexpo for taking this extremely difficult decision, and for putting the interests of the industry first.” – Jules Lejeune

Upcoming Events

Labelexpo Europe’s new schedule means the next industry event will be Labelexpo Americas, which will take place at the Donald E. Stephens Convention Center in Chicago from the 13th to the 15th of September 2022.
