• During the breakout sessions in the afternoon both the “Digital technology comes of age” and “The use of MIS in today's label plants” from the technology stream on the first day were particularly well received along with “UV flexo – today and tomorrow” (with a line-up of speakers from MPS, Harper GraphicSolutions, Erhardt+Leimer and Sun Chemical) and “Label applicator technology: what's new” on the second afternoon.
• Mike Jelinsky from Martin Automatic led a very popular session from the business management stream on the second day, “Waste management in the label plant”, which looked at reducing down time and the elimination of materials waste.
• With encouraging your business to be green being one of the hottest topics at the moment, “Environmental issues for the label converter”, session eight on day two proved very popular, with speakers from Spear Latin America, Ahlstrom and Grupo Modelo all contributing.
• “Challenges of a family-run business” saw Fabian Silva Yedra and Nidia Silva Yedra deliver a very interesting and informative insight to the running of their family label business.
• The conference closed with a record 67 delegates attending the last session, “The end user's perspective”. Sandra Zamora from Tequila Sauza S de RL proved an excellent ambassador for a traditional Mexican brand, but she also represented Beam Global so has many products in her portfolio. Claudia Yrigoyen Friedewold from Procter & Gamble was able to give a very knowledable view of the Mexican market from both a label buyers and a brand owner's view.

Roger Pellow, Labelexpo Managing Director, commented: “As always it was a pleasure to be in Mexico City and it was great to be met by such a brilliant reception from the industry. I'm also delighted that Mexico has now set up its own label association, AMETIQ, and we are very pleased to be helping and supporting the association and look forward to them joining the other global label associations at Labelexpo Americas in Chicago. The summit provided delegates with all the latest information to grow their business's profitability, to network and to make valuable new contacts. I would like to thank everyone involved with Label Summit Latin America, the visitors, exhibitors, media and associations have all contributed to make this one the most successful events that we have had in this region and we look forward to returning in 2012.”
