 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.
