FESPA 2018 expects to have largest textile zone till date

FESPA has launched its visitor campaign for the FESPA 2018 Global Print Expo, which is going to take place over four days from 15 to 18 May 2018 in Berlin, Germany. This year, FESPA 2018 is expected to feature the largest textile zone of any FESPA event to date, reflecting the market’s growing interest in soft signage, fashion and decorative textiles. FESPA 2017 already showed an increase in exhibitors showcasing textile applications, and demand continues to escalate, with two entire halls in Berlin already dedicated to textile printing at this stage.

The campaign strapline, ‘Where Print Takes Off’, signifies FESPA’s role as the international platform for new technology, ideas and applications across the digital wide format, screen printing and textile printing markets. Occupying 10 halls at Messe Berlin, which last hosted the event in 2007, FESPA 2018 Global Print Expo is one comprehensive event, devoted to digital wide format, screen printing and textile printing. FESPA 2018 will also have an entire hall dedicated to substrates, reflecting the critical role played by media innovation in enabling application diversification. The last FESPA Global Print Expo in Hamburg in 2017 attracted visitors from over 130 countries, cementing it as the foremost global event for the speciality print community.
