GRAPH EXPO’s wide format pavilion displays new tools

From building wraps to fine art reproductions,
digitally printed extra-large products have provided
a path to new profits and opportunity for printers
and other specialists all over America. The wide format pavilion at GRAPH
EXPO (September 9-12, 2007 at McCormick Place), which returns in
September for its 5th year, has been a key catalyst for this trend.
Many of the products and tools first seen in the pavilion have since
become familiar on the larger show floor of America’s premiere graphic
communications exhibition. Wide format systems allow production
of banners, posters, store displays, vehicle wraps, short run labels,
even floor tiles and textiles.
This diversity of applications and products also describes the pavilion
exhibits for 2007. Because the Pavilion has proven to be such an incubator
for promising new technologies, and an economical way for new
exhibitors to reach out to important audiences, it has attracted a variety
of respected communications industry organizations as sponsors.
About two-dozen leading firms are taking part in the pavilion this year,
including Gandinnovations, Fujifilm Sericol USA, Inc, Mimaki USA,
MacDermid ColorSpan and Gerber Scientific/Gerber Innovations.
In addition to exhibits, a popular feature of each annual wide format
pavilion has been the free educational sessions offered throughout the
show at the wide format theater right in the pavilion.
