one world -
             one drupa

The last staging of drupa in 2008 was an overwhelming success with around 391,000 visitors from 138 countries attending the show, proving once again that it is the industry's leading event worldwide.

Not only is drupa the trade fair to see latest developments and to place orders, it is also a confidence barometer for the entire print media industry itself, its markets, its clients and its suppliers.

drupa’s range is impressive, featuring both traditional and pioneering technologies for pre-press and pre-media, printing (machinery, appliances and accessories), book binding and print finishing as well as paper converting services including packaging production, materials and consumables.

drupa 2012 will again be the meeting place for global experts – leading you to greater success!
