drupa touchpoint textile to showcase new trends of textile printing solutions

By establishing touchpoint textile, drupa 2024 has created a special forum to showcase pioneering applications in digital textile printing. The highlight will be the Digital Textile Micro Factory – a fully connected, integrated process chain starting with the customer enquiry and design through to large-format digital textile printing. As the leading global trade fair for print technologies drupa tracks the rising importance of digital textile printing and underscores its standing as the impulse generator and driver for new lines of business in the print sector.

touchpoint textile represents drupa’s growing expansion into new markets comprising such segments as packaging production, large-format or industrial and functional printing next to packaging production. All of these segments are undergoing the same transformation processes and offer enormous growth potential. The special forum revolves around the opportunities and challenges of digital textile printing, brings together renowned exhibitors, industry partners and brand owners and provides scope for cross-industry cooperation, new projects as well as product and manufacturing ideas. 2024 will see the design competition ‘drupa – textile design talents’ being held for the first time.
