Harris & Bruno is heading to Las Vegas for PRINTING United Expo 2026, taking place September 23-25 at the Las Vegas Convention Center! The three-day event brings commercial print, packaging, mailing, wide-format, apparel, and other print markets together to explore the technologies shaping the industry.

This year at Booth N6061, H&B will highlight coating samples produced across our growing portfolio of sheetfed and web coating solutions, including the sheet fed ZR, high-speed web ZRW, and newly announced compact sheet coating unit, the ZRE.

See the Impact of Coating

A finished printed piece provides the clearest demonstration of what coating can add to a production workflow.

Attendees will be able to see and feel a wide selection of applications featuring Aqueous and UV gloss, matte, soft touch, and other specialty finishes. These samples demonstrate how the right coating can protect print, improve durability, control surface appearance, and create a stronger tactile experience.

From commercial print and direct mail to books, packaging, and promotional applications, the samples from H&B’s sheet and web coating units will show how coating can help printers deliver greater value without adding unnecessary complexity to production.

Coating Solutions for Sheetfed and Web Production

Samples produced on the ZR will highlight the flexibility of H&B’s sheetfed coating technology. Designed for inline or offline production, the ZR provides consistent coating application across a wide range of substrates, coatings, and print applications.

The ZRW samples will demonstrate the advantages of high-speed web coating for digitally printed books, direct mail, catalogs, and commercial work. With the ability to coat and dry both sides of the web, the ZRW helps printers improve durability, manage gloss, and create a finished product while maintaining the productivity and speed of modern inkjet web presses.

PRINTING United Expo will also provide an early opportunity to learn about the newly announced compact coating unit, the ZRE. Developed as an accessible sheetfed coating solution, the ZRE expands the H&B portfolio for printers looking to bring professional coating capabilities into their operation.

Together, the ZR, ZRW, and ZRE represent coating solutions designed for different production environments, application requirements, and growth strategies.

Built Through Industry Collaboration

Many of the samples on display are created through collaborations with leading press manufacturers and industry partners, including HP, Canon, Kodak, SCREEN, and others.

These projects bring together print, paper, coating, and finishing technologies to demonstrate complete production workflows. They also reflect the importance of collaboration when developing applications that perform reliably from the press through the final finishing stage.

By working directly with OEM partners, H&B can help ensure coating solutions complement today’s digital and conventional printing platforms while giving printers additional ways to protect and enhance their work.

Meet With the Harris & Bruno Team

Harris & Bruno will be represented by Nick Bruno, Spencer Bruno, Paul Furse, Juan Soto, Nicole France, and Ryan Moskun.

The team will be available throughout the Expo to discuss coating applications, equipment requirements, workflow challenges, and opportunities to increase the value of printed work. Attendees are encouraged to bring questions, sample ideas, or current coating challenges for a practical conversation about the right solution for their operation.
