SOUTHBOROUGH, MA, USA—According to the Printing Industries of New England (PINE), interest for the group's upcoming Northeast Graphics Trade Show has been growing.

"More than a dozen exhibitors have already signed contracts, and several nationally known suppliers and vendors have indicated they will join the show in the coming weeks and months," says PINE. "Historically, most vendors have not made their final decision regarding our show until late August, September, and even later," adds Joe Venti, PINE's trade show manager.

"Meanwhile," reports the expo organizer, "a growing mix of seminars and programs gives Northeast Graphics a comprehensive line-up of training and information programs for show attendees." PINE says among the vendors slated to participate in the event:

• Brown Packaging

• Wexler Packaging Products

• Graphic Imaginations

• Matheson Higgins/Congress Press

• Kimoto Tech Inc.

• Island Clean Air

• MeadWestvaco

• Printing Equipment Guide

• Prographic

• Zapco Inc.

• Star Bindery - J.L. McIntosh

• Sheppard Envelope

• PrintCafe

• DeBourke

• Southworth

In addition, printing industry guru, from the Rochester Institute of Technology School of Print Media, Frank Romano will lead separate seminars about industry trends and designing for digital printing, says PINE. Other key points covered during the show include: how printers can better connect with customers; the burgeoning demand for quality color work; the importance of a smart workflow; and the advantages of a computer-to-plate workflow on press and off.
