We start this month's episode by reviewing the intended merger of the two biggest associations in the print industry, TMRC and PVCA, which is good news for the industry.

The discussion then moves on to the shock closure of Ovato Heatset New Zealand, and the paper supply issues which impacted them, and what that means for the rest of the industry.

Next up is the Media Super and Cbus super fund merger, looking at what it means for printer sin the fund, and for the industry as a whole. Following this we look into the outdoor and display sector, which seems to be returning with force, following a dip during the Covid pandemic, and the labelling sector that rode a strong wave during Covid and is now offering opportunities to all.

We wrap up the episode with the news of ePac's expansion less than six months after opening its business in Melbourne, and finish examining the exciting return of trade shows in Australia and overseas. It appears the suppliers have the appetite to attend, now to see if print business owners and managers have the same ambition.
