MENTOR, Ohio—September 2, 2026—Avery Dennison will present its latest labeling and RFID innovations at LOUPE Americas under the booth theme “Discover the Power of Possibility.” The interactive experience demonstrates how the company brings labels and intelligent materials together to address real production and sustainability challenges for label converters and their customers.

 

The booth is organized around five key segments—food, logistics, pharma, wine and spirits, and industrial—demonstrating what integrated label and RFID technologies make possible across each. Visitors will see firsthand how these combined solutions support supply chain visibility, strengthen brand engagement, and advance circularity.

 

At the center of the demos is AD Fusion, a first-of-its-kind program delivering customizable materials with pre-inserted RFID inlays that integrate seamlessly into existing workflows. In the food segment, Anchor AT™ showcases dependable low-temperature bonding for cold, wet, and freezer environments, while the AD IdentiFresh™ Inlay series advances RFID adoption across fresh food categories including bakery, meat, deli, and produce. In wine and spirits, AD CleanGlass™ supports glass reuse through a wash-off adhesive that allows easy, clean label removal from glass bottles in a caustic wash at 80 degrees Celsius.

Avery Dennison also invites attendees to schedule one-on-one sessions with its technical and sustainability experts. These consultations provide practical guidance on production challenges and on navigating Extended Producer Responsibility (EPR) legislation—an increasingly critical consideration for converters and brands in the US.

 

“LOUPE Americas gives us the opportunity to show converters exactly what is possible when advanced labeling and RFID technologies work together,” said Abby Monnot, vice president of marketing at Avery Dennison. “Our goal is to help our customers turn today’s challenges into tomorrow’s competitive advantage.”

 

Converters attending LOUPE Americas are invited to visit Avery Dennison at Booth #119 to experience these innovations firsthand and meet with the company’s technical experts. For more information and to schedule a consultation, visit label.averydennison.com/na/en/home/loupe-2026.html.

PICO RIVERA, Calif. – E Labels has transformed its business by embracing Domino digital printing technology… not once, but twice… enabling the California-based label converter to expand into new markets, increase production efficiency, and better serve customers demanding shorter runs and faster turnaround times.

We caught up with Carlos Rivera (owner) and his daughter Jacky Rivera (CFO), to learn more about the business and their journey with Domino… from installing their first Domino N610i digital UV inkjet label press in 2019, to then adding a second N610i in 2024… and the exceptional changes and growth that their business has experienced because of it.  Their story is highlighted in this VIDEO: E Labels & Domino

Serving customers across food and beverage, cosmetics, pharmaceutical, oil, and other industrial markets, E Labels has built its reputation on delivering high-quality labels while providing outstanding customer service. Today, the company produces millions of labels annually.

According to Carlos Rivera, investing in Domino digital printing technology has been one of the company’s most significant business decisions.

Game Changer

“Customers are looking for commitment on us being able to meet their requirements and deliver on time, and technology is the key,” said Carlos. “As soon as our first Domino press was installed, we started producing labels much faster than we could with flexographic printing. About 50 percent of our business moved to digital, and what really surprised me was seeing medium-sized runs transition to digital as well. It was a game changer.”

For E Labels, the shift to digital printing has opened new opportunities while allowing the company to offer greater flexibility and respond to customer demand in a highly efficient manner.

Jacky said the addition of Domino technology fundamentally changed the company’s capabilities.

 

“When I started here, we had two flexographic presses and we weren’t getting many short-run jobs,” she explained. “After adding Domino, we were able to produce smaller runs and multiple SKUs without charging customers more. That’s really where E Labels blossomed.”

Today, the family-owned company continues to maximize every square foot of its Pico Rivera facility while preparing for its next phase of growth.

“We’re a small company, but we’ve built a great team and invested in great machinery,” said Jacky. “That allows us to be better partners to our customers, and that’s why they keep coming back.”

Success Breeds Success

The company’s success with its first Domino press ultimately led to the installation of a second system to support increasing customer demand.

“Our first Domino helped us bring in more business,” Jacky said. “We needed the second one to help us continue growing.”

The benefits have extended beyond increased productivity. Employees quickly adapted to the technology, enabling faster onboarding and greater operational flexibility.

“It’s great equipment,” said Carlos. “Our employees learned it very quickly and can operate it independently. It’s simple.”

Press Operator Elvira Pacheco echoed that sentiment, noting that operating two Domino presses allows the production team to maximize efficiency by running multiple jobs simultaneously.

“The machine is easy to operate,” said Elvira. “Having two machines makes it easy to keep production moving because we can be working on one while setting up another. That’s why I’m always happy working here with Domino.”

Beyond the equipment itself, E Labels credits Domino’s service and support as an important part of its continued success.

 

The Domino Difference

“The Domino difference is that both the machine and the service speak for themselves,” said Jacky. “I’m proud to tell people we have two Domino presses. We’re a team, me and Domino.”

Looking ahead, Carlos said Domino will remain E Labels’ digital printing technology of choice as the company continues to expand.

“If I needed another digital press based on the demand we have today, I can almost guarantee it would be another Domino,” he said. “On a scale of one to ten, my satisfaction is a ten-plus. Investing in Domino has been the best technology upgrade we’ve made, and we’ve been extremely successful with it.”

As customer demand continues to evolve toward shorter runs, more SKUs, and faster delivery, E Labels believes its partnership with Domino positions the company for continued growth and success while maintaining the high level of quality and service its customers have come to expect.

 

About E Labels

E Labels is a family-owned label printing company based in Pico Rivera, CA. Established 26 years ago by Carlos Rivera, the company combines traditional values with cutting-edge technology to serve clients in various industries. With a focus on quality, reliability, and customer satisfaction, E Labels continues to evolve to meet the demands of today’s market.  For more information on E Labels, please visit elabelsinc.com

[Chicago,10 June 26] LOUPE Americas (formerly Labelexpo Americas) is part of a powerful portfolio: LOUPE Global (formerly Labelexpo Global Series). LOUPE is the global platform for the label and package printing industries, connecting business professionals in labels, flexible packaging, more specifically shrink sleeves and pouches, and in-line folding carton converting. The Americas iteration will return to Chicago from 15 – 17 September at the Donald E. Stephens Convention Center, Rosemont. Here, Tasha Ventimiglia, LOUPE’s Group Director, Americas, brings us on a 25-year journey from when she first stepped into an event to her views on what the future holds.

 

 

Late 80s, the early days

The origins of LOUPE Americas trace back to 1989, when the first Labelexpo Americas—then called Labelexpo USA—was launched in Rosemont. With around 60 exhibitors occupying a section of Hall A, the event was born out of the label sector’s need for a dedicated platform, as it felt overshadowed by general printing shows of the time. This marked the beginning of the “Labelexpo” family, a specialized event that has since grown into a cornerstone of the label and packaging industry.

 

My journey began in June 2001. Even though I had been working behind the scenes on our event for over a year, to be completely honest, I had no idea what the event really was until I walked onto our show floor for the first time in 2002. I vividly remember being completely blown away by the scale and innovation shown at the event, and thinking “OK, now I get it – this industry is huge!” It was eye-opening to see the complexity behind printing a label. The 2002 event buzzed with discussions about the beginnings of e-commerce, in-mold technology, advancements in digital printing, and the ability to print on multiple substrates. It was a stunning introduction to an industry that thrives on innovation.

 

The team making it big today

Fast forward to today, and the event has evolved significantly. The equipment is faster, more efficient, and of higher quality. Sustainability has become a priority, and automation and smart technologies are now integral to suppliers’ offerings. The industry’s rapid changes are driven by brand-level demands, such as the need for sustainability, SKU proliferation, and the importance of brands differentiating from each other through advancements in embellishment technology. The event has also expanded its global reach over the years, bolstered by initiatives such as the launch of our Label Summits, which debuted in Mexico City in 2004 and have since extended across South America.

 

What makes LOUPE Americas extraordinary is the dedicated team behind the scenes. With many team members having over 15 years of experience and newer additions bringing fresh energy and valuable contributions, we’ve cultivated a close-knit, family-like environment.

 

Our operations team works tirelessly behind the scenes to make certain that our events run smoothly. They are the first to arrive and the last to leave at our events, ensuring every detail is perfect. Our sales team plays a crucial role in understanding clients’ needs and helping them grow their businesses. The marketing team ensures our messaging connects effectively with all attendee personas, while actively managing our websites, social media campaigns, and partnerships. Meanwhile, the education team curates cutting-edge content and trends, transforming the event into a premier hub for learning and industry growth. The Labels & Labeling team is our voice of the industry. Our editors are constantly traveling to industry events and meeting with our converter and suppliers to understand what’s trending and where the future is heading.

 

This year, LOUPE Americas is not just about showcasing the latest in labels, flexible packaging (specifically shrink and pouches), and short run, in-line folding cartons; it’s about fostering community and connection. We’re introducing initiatives like a fun run/walk, relevant educational sessions, and networking opportunities to bring like-minded industry professionals together. Our goal is to make LOUPE a place where the industry gathers to learn, connect, and grow every two years.

 

Looking to the future

Reflecting on my 25-year journey, I feel incredibly fortunate to have found this industry and job. The welcoming nature of the community has allowed me to build lifelong friendships, learn invaluable lessons about business and relationships, and grow both personally and professionally.

 

I’m particularly inspired by the future of the industry. The passionate and intelligent leaders joining the field, the bright college students eager to make their mark, and the increasing presence of women in leadership roles are all signs of a promising future. I’m excited to see what’s next for LOUPE Americas and the industry.

 

As LOUPE Americas continues to grow, I can’t wait to witness the innovations, connections, and transformations that lie ahead. This event is more than a trade show—it’s a celebration of an industry that thrives on creativity, collaboration, and progress. Here’s to the future of LOUPE Americas and the label and packaging industry!

 

 

About LOUPE Americas 

LOUPE Americas, formerly Labelexpo Americas, is part of LOUPE Global – the hub for package printing and converting.

The biennial show is the largest dedicated label and package printing event in the Americas. Its previous edition in 2024 attracted over 450 exhibitors and 12,000 visitors from 73 countries.
