Taking place from 15–17 September 2026, at the Donald Stephens Convention Centre in the USA, LOUPE Americas represents a rebranding of North America’s largest label and package printing event to reflect the rapid diversification of the modern print shop. The new LOUPE identity — standing for Labels and Outer Packaging Embellishment — acknowledges the industry’s shift toward a one-stop production model, in which converters integrate narrow-web labels with digital hybrid systems for broader packaging formats.

Featuring hundreds of live machinery demonstrations and global product launches, the 2026 exhibition is designed to help suppliers and brand owners navigate this convergence, offering technical insights into automation, sustainable materials, and the disruptive potential of inline flexo technology across the entire value chain.
