Lecta, one of the leading manufacturers and distributors in Europe of paper solutions for the label and packaging industry, announces its participation for the first time as an exhibitor at Labelexpo Americas 2024 the premier industry event that will take place from 10-12 September at the Donald E.

The company will present its full portfolio of label facestock, consisting of the well-known Coral (uncoated paper), Creaset (one-side coated paper), Eurokote (cast-coated paper), Metalvac (metallized paper) and Termax ​(thermal paper) ranges.
