Enhanced Theme to Promote the Intelligent and Integrated Development Trend of China's Printing Industry

The theme of All in Print China 2020 is “New Manufacturing, New Boundary, New Power”. Riding on the previous theme “Enter the Era of Intelligent Printing”, All in Print China continues to track and promote the intelligent process of the printing industry and explore the deep integration of printing technology and the entire industry supply chain.

 “New Manufacturing” is the perfect integration of the manufacturing and service industry. It is pointed out in the “Made in China 2025” plan that China’s manufacturing industry is expected to achieve significant progress in digitization, networking and intelligence in 2020. The intelligent printing industry has kicked off. Suppliers and printing companies have transformed their printing and manufacturing production into “intelligent printing” through business networking, production intelligence, process standardization, management digitalization, and cloud printing.

 “New Boundary” reshape the business model. The development of technologies such as Internet of Things (IoT), Artificial Intelligence, and 5G has facilitated an industrial transformation and increased market competition. Technological innovation and competition have led to the emergence of horizontal cross-border applications, and new species have been introduced. Industry boundaries will be redefined. A new round of commercial revolution will take place in the printing and packaging industry.

 “New Power” is a new impetus for economic and social development, new technologies, new industries, new industry formats and new models formed in the latest round of scientific and technological revolution and industrial transformation. Traditional power not only involves high-energy-consumption and high-pollution manufacturing, but also covers the first, second and third generation industries that operate under traditional business models. The printing industry is undergoing a transition period of “new and old power”, and All in Print China 2020 will open a new chapter to foster a new development momentum and transform and upgrade traditional energy.

Enhanced planning, “wide coverage, latest technology and integration” promotes industry development and trade connection

Promote the integration of the printing industry with other industries.

The well-planned exhibition area covers all segments of the printing industry, focusing more on hotspots, reflecting the linkage between the printing and packaging industries.
