PSI Forum for Young Innovative Companies to introduce eight start-ups

The PSI Forum for Young Innovative Companies will be introducing eight start-ups at the Leading European Trade Fair of the Promotional Products Industry in Düsseldorf from 7th to 9th January.

The Federal Ministry for Economic Affairs and Energy (BMWi) covers up to 70 per cent of the cost for the forum, thus enabling start-ups to have their own stand. Eight start-ups were awarded a grant for the 2015 show. PSI is the only German promotional products trade fair that is currently promoted by the BMWi.

Four of the supported newcomers are:

MSW Lasertechnik, who will be using the forum both as a presentation area for novelties as well as a sales platform. They will be presenting a highly precise 360° rotating device with which all cylindrical promotional articles, from ballpoint pens to thermos flasks, can be engraved seamlessly. Mass-produced engravings with logos as well as engravings of individual names can be easily handled by the software adapted for the promotional products market.

Prinopa GmbH from Detmold is also present at the special display area. Wilhelm Siemens, Managing Director of Prinopa GmbH, commented: "As a young company, we have specialised from the outset on the production of sticky note products. Virtually all products on offer from us are produced and finished in-house. In this way we achieve a high quality standard and ensure a uniform product quality. With the aid of the grant from the BMWi, we are pleased to be able to present our range of products to a wide-ranging and qualified audience at the FORUM OF YOUNG INNOVATIVE COMPANIES. For the PSI Fair 2015, we present a large range of our best sellers and product sets as well as, of course, exciting novelties. For the PSI FIRST campaign, we have developed a surprising innovation from the promotional calendars category."

schönpfeffer-invocem e.K. from Hallbergmoos in Bavaria will be a part of the forum. The company specialises in manufacturing quality promotional products including art and design objects that consist of high-grade materials which are still affordable. Their artisan production takes place in Germany. Their picture frames, cast stones, candlesticks, sculptures and much more are defined by individuality, quality and expressiveness.

Werbemittel-Händlerservice will be displaying innovations including the "DisplaySave" protective display foils with lasered logo at the forum. Frank Trimborn, Managing Director of Werbemittel-Händlerservice, said: "Up to now, these foils were only available with or without a printed design. Up to now, protective display foils were only available in retail outlets and through mail order; through subtle lasering we can now also offer these articles to the promotional products industry with logos." The high quality protective display foils consist of recyclable PE material and are already available in quantities of 25 pieces. In the standard qualities, non-reflective, matt or glossy, these foils are suitable for all current smartphones.
