Ricardo Rodriguez Lamas · Commercial Director · Domino Printing

Language: Spanish · Subtitles: Spanish/English
At Labelexpo, the team reconnects with Ricardo Rodríguez, Commercial Director of Domino Printing Mexico, to explore the latest in digital label printing. Ricardo shares insights on Domino’s robust presence at the event, highlighting a growing industry filled with innovation, technology, and expanding demand.

Domino Printing showcases its Digital Printing division, featuring advanced systems, including a four-color roll-to-roll digital press and high-resolution single-color printers like the K600 and the new K300. Designed for small-batch, variable label printing, these machines offer impressive speeds and precision—ideal for today’s dynamic packaging needs.

Ricardo emphasizes two key trends shaping the label market: digital printing and the increasing importance of QR codes and personalization. He also addresses an industry-wide shift, as upcoming regulations by 2027 will require a transition to two-dimensional codes, such as barcodes and QR codes. Domino’s technology is equipped to meet this demand, providing smart, efficient, high-quality solutions.

With over 27 years of presence in Mexico, Domino continues to lead with innovation and customer-focused service. Throughout the expo, visitors are invited to explore their full range of solutions and consult with a multilingual team ready to assist in English, Spanish, and Portuguese.

Andrea Lopez · Quality Coordination · Kurz Mexico

Language: Spanish · Subtitles: Spanish/English
At Labelexpo, the team stops by one of the most impressive and visually striking stands at the show—Kurz's stand—where they meet with Andrea López. She warmly welcomes the visitors and expresses the company's excitement about participating in such a significant industry event. Kurz, known for its expertise in graphic enhancement, is showcasing its full portfolio of solutions that aim to make printed materials more beautiful and impactful in the market.

Andrea shares insights into what Kurz presents at the expo, including their wide range of dies for various design enhancements—from micro and nano textures to high-security features like holograms and VOID technologies tailored for the pharmaceutical sector. The stand highlights aesthetic and functional security innovations, offering tools for traceability, counterfeit detection, and customer engagement.

With years of experience in the market, Andrea explains that Kurz divides its security offerings into two main areas: physical appearance, which includes simulated holograms and enhanced finishes, and deeper security layers like invisible inks and barcode scanning for full product traceability. These solutions allow brands to monitor where and how their products are bought and used, offering a comprehensive 360-degree approach to packaging and labeling.

She emphasizes the importance of finishing touches in label design—what Kurz calls "embellishment"—which help products stand out on the shelf and invite consumers to look closer. With a wide selection of foils in various colors and patterns, Kurz offers brands the tools to differentiate themselves and create a strong visual identity.

As the expo starts, Andrea notes the strong attendance and expresses optimism about connecting with existing clients and new potential partners. She invites everyone to visit stand E71, where the Kurz team is ready to share their innovations and welcome visitors throughout the event.

Steffen Haaga · Director of Global Business Development · CERM

At Labelexpo Guadalajara, CERM is present to showcase its growing commitment to the Latin American market, particularly Mexico. Steffen, representing the company, shares that this is his fourth visit to the country but the first time exhibiting at the show in Guadalajara. Previous visits revealed a vibrant and promising market, encouraging CERM to invest further and establish a stronger presence.

Mexico has proven to be an exciting and significant region for the labels and packaging sector. With a large and growing population, increased demand for consumer goods, and a strong retail presence, the country offers substantial opportunities for companies like CERM. Some of the company’s largest and most impressive clients are based in Mexico, including Etiflex, a massive 500-employee printing facility in Mexico City, which stands out as one of the largest single-plant label operations.

The conversation also touches on CERM’s recent acquisition of Swedish-based Omikai, a cloud-based MIS company. This strategic move is not just about expanding market reach but also about accelerating CERM’s technological development. Omikai’s advanced cloud architecture and highly capable team are expected to fast-track CERM’s cloud roadmap by several years. The synergy between the two companies is strong, both culturally and technically, making the integration a natural fit.

Looking ahead, CERM sees significant potential in Mexico and across Spanish-speaking markets. With increased demand for automation and digital transformation in printing workflows, CERM is responding by building local capacity, including hiring support and implementation specialists in the region. The expectations for Labelexpo and beyond are high, driven by a belief in the region’s growth and a clear vision for supporting that growth with advanced solutions.

Released last year, this machine combines the strengths of previous models like the FB Classic and FA-Line, offering enhanced performance in both 14- and 17-inch widths. Designed as a hybrid of proven features, the new FB-Line reflects Nilpeter’s ongoing commitment to innovation in flexo printing.

Flexography remains the company’s core focus. While Nilpeter also engages in other areas, the emphasis is clear: Flexo is the future. This message is prominently displayed at the stand, underscoring the company's dedication to advancing technology and supporting its global customer base.

The Mexican market is especially important for Nilpeter. With a long-standing presence in the region, the company notes that Guadalajara has the highest number of Nilpeter press installations worldwide. This strong foothold drives continued investment and outreach to further build relationships and expand the client base.

Nilpeter is widely recognized for its high-quality engineering and production standards. The company manufactures its equipment at state-of-the-art facilities, ensuring precision, durability, and reliability. Customers who invest in Nilpeter machines benefit from a trusted legacy of performance and support.

The objective at Labelexpo is clear: to generate new business and develop projects beyond the exhibition. While immediate sales are a key goal, establishing long-term connections remains just as important.

As the conversation at the stand concludes, a clear message is left behind—flexography is central to Nilpeter’s identity and to the future of the printing industry.
