delighted by the wide use of colour. I am always amazed that the degree of quality is not only maintained but continues to improve each year. We are always surprised by the imaginative ideas presented in the innovation and security classeswhichshows,byresearchingthe needs of the customer, the label industry is able to introduce new, and in some cases, potentially lifesaving solutions. This is definitely an exciting and expanding industry to be involved in.”
