ICE USA, the International Converting Exhibition, has opened exhibit space sales for the next show scheduled for April 9-11, 2019 in Louisville, KY, USA.

ICE USA is North America’s leading converting exhibition, bringing over 250 exhibitors together with thousands of packaging, paper, non-woven and self-adhesive industry professionals. Manufacturers will showcase their latest equipment and technology from all key areas of converting like web coating, laminating, slitting, rewinding, coating, pouch making and more.

Exhibitors submitting their applications by March 1, 2018 can take advantage of early bird pricing as well as the priority space draw. New for the 2019 show, ICE USA will launch a Priority Point System to reward exhibitors, regardless of their size, for their past involvement with the show. Booth selection for 2019 will be determined by the number of points earned in 2017, allowing companies with the highest point total to select their exhibit space first during the virtual space draw, to take place in mid-March.

New exhibitors are also eligible to participate in the priority space draw and are encouraged to submit their applications as soon as possible.

ICE USA will again be co-located with InPrint USA, the Industrial Print Show, in 2019. InPrint USA connects and educates manufacturers who use print as a key component of the manufacturing process with leading brands in the fields of industrial specialty, screen, digital, inkjet and 3D technology print solutions.

More than 3,400 verified registrants came to the co-located shows last April 2017. In 2019, the show will move from Orlando, FL to Louisville.

“We have gotten great feedback on the new show location from both exhibitors and attendees,” says Julie Ford, ICE USA exhibition manager. “By moving the show closer to the converting industry, we are looking to put more customers in front of our exhibitors.”
