COLOP at Creativeworld

The most important international trade fair for the hobby, craft and art supplies industry took place from 27 to 30 January 2024. The Austrian stamp manufacturer COLOP was there again this year. Creative products and innovations were presented on a unique trade fair stand and made accessible to a wide audience.

COLOP e-mark go - the mobile printer for every lifestyle

The e-mark go was already presented as a world first at last year’s Creativeworld and was honoured with 1st place of the Creative Impulse Award in the category "Creative Product of the Year". In 2024, COLOPs e-mark go celebrated its first birthday and once again proved to be a crowd puller in Hall 1.2. The e-mark go is a small, compact mobile printer and therefore the perfect companion for everyone. Whether for crafting, personalisation or gift wrapping, one thing is certain - you can create something unique. Visitors to the trade fair were able to see this for themselves. In the accompanying app, there are numerous templates and clipart to make the designs colourful, cheerful and individual. More templates and clipart packs such as Holidays, Spring, Christmas and many more can be downloaded from the app store. These packs are constantly being added to, so you never run out of design options!

MARKY, the friendly textile stamp from COLOP

Another highlight was the brand new MARKY textile stamp from COLOP. Misplaced or lost items of clothes, shoes, school supplies and personal items at school, camp or during sports are now a thing of the past. With the MARKY, COLOP has developed a very simple solution to protect all personal items from being lost or mixed up.  The MARKY is available in 3 different colours and is packaged in an attractive cardboard box - perfect for retail. The set includes the stamp with a friendly face and a cover, so you can take it with you wherever you go. A type set, a pair of tweezers, a thermal iron-on tape for dark fabrics and dishwasher-safe labels for non-absorbent materials such as lunch boxes, water bottles etc. round off the set. The ink pad is impregnated with dermatologically tested textile ink and lasts for up to 1,000 imprints. 

Tattoo stamps

The LaDot tattoo stamps were once again very popular. They offer an easy way to create temporary tattoos without having to commit to a long-term design. This makes them a great option for anyone who wants to try out different looks.  Unlike sticker tattoos, LaDot Cosmetic uses a completely new and much more creative method to apply temporary tattoos. Clay stamps are combined with dermatologically tested cosmetic colours and many exciting accessories to create a holistic concept. The tattoos last for several days, but can be removed quickly and easily with baby oil or make-up remover. Lisa Hölzl (Product Manager at COLOP) states: "Tattoo stamps have become a real hit over the past year due to their ease of use, the large selection of designs and the low price compared to real tattoos. They allow children, teenagers and the young at heart to give free rein to their creativity and express their personal style."

Creativeword 2024 - a great success

Creativeworld 2024 was once again a great success for COLOP. Our creative products attracted the attention of the visitors and impressed them with their quality and potential. We not only had many interesting discussions, but also made valuable contacts. The positive response and feedback from visitors confirmed that we are on the right track with our products. Heinz Angerlehner (Head of Marketing and Product Management at COLOP) is convinced: "We are confident that our creative products will open up new business opportunities and that we have found potential partners for future collaborations at the trade fair."
