Manufacturing is coming home!
In recent years it became clear that the dependency of a long and vulnerable supply chain, with longer lead times, compromises in quality, higher costs, and of course unsustainable processes is coercing the bike industry to change direction. The only Asia-oriented approach is unsustainable in the long run -from the commercial, financial, technical, logistical and environmental perspectives.
Fortunately, the change of thinking was already starting a few years ago and its gaining momentum!Bicycle, eBike, cargo-bike manufacturing is reshoring, near-shoring, friend-shoring for ALL the right reasons. Creating many new opportunities for the producers in Europe aiming to meet the expectations of the consumers with better products at lower cost and a better carbon footprint.
The sppot for the sixth year in a row addresses the bicycle and sporting goods industry with color trends and effects. This year they come bolder, bigger and with more ambitions. Hosted by PosteramaScreen Productions– leading European decal manufacturer,and all partners form the sppot ecosystem: TIGER Coatings–global producer of high quality powder coatings, Berlac AG–leader in development and production of liquid coatings, WAGNER–one of the leading global producers of application systems for coatings, EuroTherm– design and construction of coating systems, Duthoo – care and repair products for surface finishingand Lesta – self learning robots and automations for surface finishing- Color Trend Days are offering solutions to the industry.
Manufacturing is coming home, is the topic of the conference – the business part of the event.

Along to the presentations &discussion, guests of the event will have a chance to participate at the open space table-top installations forsmartand sustainable products.
