Anderson & Vreeland welcomed a crowd as the show opened on May 5.

Registration is now open for 2026 FORUM INFOFLEX, the flexographic industry’s premier annual gathering. The 2026 edition takes place in Milwaukee, WI, USA. The event will feature a full program of dynamic education sessions and networking opportunities. FORUM INFOFLEX promises to inspire, challenge, and equip attendees with the tools to continue advancing the flexographic industry.

Next year’s program puts printers’ experience first, too. Plus, it features education sessions designed to address the challenges they face on the pressroom floor and in the marketplace. FORUM INFOFLEX will also deliver solutions that keep flexography moving forward. 

“Printers are at the heart of flexography, and FORUM INFOFLEX is built for them,” says Nathan Ridnouer, president, FTA. “That’s why Milwaukee is the ideal setting for next year. It’s not just a backdrop but a powerful symbol of where flexography has been and where it’s going. As one of the country’s most active printing and converting regions, Wisconsin provides the perfect home to bring our industry together, tackle real-world challenges, showcase innovation, and highlight what’s next for flexo.”
