Komori announced its decision to cancel its participation in the drupa 2021 exhibition planned for April of 2021 due to ongoing concerns over the novel coronavirus infectious disease (COVID-19). The decision to suspend attending the exhibit is made in response to the continued spread of COVID-19 and the potential risks of a second or third surge of the pandemic. Komori puts the highest priority on ensuring the health and safety of its global customers and employees.
While these unpredictable circumstances prevent Komori from participating in drupa 2021, its plan is to launch an array of new products and services in the days to come through open house events and active participations in regional exhibitions. New information will also be released on Komori’s plans to utilize various media outlets to stay connected, such as corporate websites, information and video distribution services, emails or SMS, online exhibitions and webinars.
