    The ERA Packaging and Decorative Gravure Conference 2019 will be held on 6-7 November in the North German city of Kiel, site of the leading manufacturer of engraving technology Hell Gravure Systems.

    The conference will discuss current developments and trends in gravure technology and the markets of packaging and decorative gravure. This year a special focus will be put on the still ongoing authorization process for chromium trioxide and strategies to ensure gravure’s future against this background. Besides these subjects, the conference will raise the current climate discussion and how climate policies could affect our industry, as well as the political and economic advance of India, which is a prosperous market for gravure.
    On the second day of the event the programme foresees a visit to the headquarters and plant of Hell Gravure Systems where the latest developments in engraving technology will be shown.
