At LBS, we believe in the power of continuous education and the value of building strong industry relationships. This past month, our team members had the opportunity to attend two important industry events: PubWest in New Orleans and LuxePack Los Angeles. These conferences provide invaluable insights into market trends, emerging technologies, and customer needs—all of which help us serve our customers better.

PubWest: Exploring the Future of Publishing

PubWest is a premier publishing event that brings together a variety of talents from the book industry, including authors, publishers, manufacturers, and suppliers. Our team attended a variety of sessions to gain insights into key industry topics such as print-on-demand versus offset printing, the impact of AI in publishing, and strategies to maximize revenue from existing titles. These discussions provided valuable takeaways that will help us support our customers in the evolving publishing landscape.

LuxePack Los Angeles: A Deep Dive into Luxury
Packaging Trends

LuxePack Los Angeles is a dynamic event, bringing together leaders in luxury packaging, particularly in the beauty and cosmetics industries. A key takeaway from the conference was the importance of differentiation in packaging design. Brand owners are seeking materials and solutions that make their products stand out in an increasingly competitive market. With LBS’s extensive
range of cover materials, we are well-positioned to provide unique and high-quality solutions for luxury packaging needs.

Strengthening Our Industry Presence

These events reinforce our commitment to staying at the forefront of industry trends while also giving us the chance to meet our customers face to face. By continuously investing in our team’s education and market knowledge, we ensure that LBS remains a trusted and innovative partner for our customers. We look forward to future industry events and the opportunities they bring to strengthen partnerships, gain new insights, and showcase the expertise that sets LBS apart. Looking ahead, we are excited to announce that LBS will be exhibiting at LuxePack New York in May, and we can’t wait to connect with many of you there!
