The OE-A is the internationally leading industry association in this field. “We are delighted that we may welcome 100 high-caliber representatives of industry and institutes,” says Christian Senninger, head of the Competence Center Schreiner PrinTronics. The integration of printed electronics into products of the automotive industry, consumer electronics, for product and brand protection as well as other industries will be the focal topic of the meeting. During a tour of the plant the company will present its technology and products in the field of printed electronics.

Schreiner PrinTronics has been an active member of the OE-A since 2007. Four times a year research and development institutes, material manufacturers, equipment manufacturers, producing companies and end users from Europe, North America and Asia meet to discuss current industry topics.
