"It was a thrill to learn more about the markets that SGIA attendees are focusing on, and to share how GPA can help them increase their opportunities with specialty materials," shared Geers after the show. She continued, "As our traditional customers continue to expand their equipment platforms from offset and narrow format digital to wide- and grand-format presses, GPA is expanding with them. It’s especially beneficial because our customers can continue with the same substrate supplier they have relied on for years for specialty products and technical expertise."
