Graph Expo--Roll Out The Technology

Though the study certainly gave printers something to contemplate, it was by no means the only news at Graph Expo, which attracted more than 44,000 visitors during its four-day tour of Chicago's McCormick Place. Despite the fact that the show followed closely on the heels of IPEX, its more than 550 exhibitors reported significant sales. Heidelberg, for example, boasted $108 million in sales. MAN Roland announced an impressive $57 million in orders, with total expectations in the $70 million range. Muller-Martini revealed that it exceeded its sales expectations by 50 percent the first day of the show.
