As brands and organizations seek practical and creative methods to implement environmentally-responsible practices, this year’s FESPA Global Print Expo will have a strong emphasis on sustainability. Many exhibitors are anticipated to display innovative sustainable solutions on their exhibits, and the brand new Sustainability Spotlight feature will give practical, educational, and actionable guidance to address the demands of People, Planet, and Profit.
Rob Karpenko, KAVALAN’s European Sales Director, will talk at the Sustainability Spotlight on June 2nd at 14:00, entitled “The Future is PVC-Free – Are You Getting Left Behind?” Rob will demonstrate what it means to take responsibility for your company’s environmental impact, including the viability of corporate recycling infrastructure, the reality behind “greenwashing,” and the long-term effects of polyvinyl chloride (PVC), as well as equipping attendees to embrace a greener future without sacrificing profits or product performance.
Rob added that as they prepare to assemble in Berlin, it’s been great to see so many exhibitors putting a strong focus on sustainability. They’re thrilled to be partnering with Epson to demonstrate how thoughtful and meaningful green innovation throughout the wide-format value chain can deliver incredible results while significantly reducing environmental impact.
