In three weeks, Fespa Digital will open its doors to the global wide format and signage community as it celebrates its 10th anniversary.
Roz McGuinness, divisional director for Fespa, says, “With four sold out shows and the largest Fespa Digital and European Sign Expo events to date, an extended range of applications covered in Fespa Textile and the return of Printeriors, there’s certainly a lot for visitors to discover.
Fespa runs from Marcg 8-11 in Amsterdam
“There are over 20 new exhibitors across the four events with in excess of 30 product launches, which highlights the value that the Fespa exhibitor community places in our events as the perfect platform for their global product launches.”
The largest Fespa event to date will run from March 8-11 in Amsterdam and will cover 42,000sqm of exhibition space. Return exhibitors include HP, Canon, Mimaki, EFI, d.gen, Avery Dennison and Roland. First time exhibitors include Ricoh, ATS Colore Digitale, CWT Tools, Excel Plastics, FH-Union, Holacolor Technology, Impronta Gadget, Lusher Tschudi, Kohlschein, Provis, Pals Print, Netlink imaging, Pratrivero, Technotape and Tesoma.

First time exhibitor bsmart media and displays will present its latest range of rigid foam PVC, while Grafityp will display coloured films for its automotive and deco ranges.

For printed interiors, Digidelta will show decal wallpaper and the latest generation of films for interior decoration applications, while Neschen will launch its Green Wall wallpaper range.Visitors interested in digital textile printing can explore halls of dedicated textile solutions. Exhibitors include Kornit Digital, Durst, Kiian, MS Printing Solutions, Vavatex, Fersan Textile, Elkotb Textiles, and Zschimmer and Schwarz.
Textile focused product launches include a new material handling system from bullmer; Transjet Eco II sublimation papers from Cham Paper Group; and new pigment and sublimation inks from Kiian Digital.
McGuinness says, “Besides our dedicated textile halls, we’re aware that a number of exhibitors throughout Fespa Digital will also have textile solutions on their stands, so we have implemented a textile trail which will be steered by our very own superhero Textilewoman to highlight those exhibitors who are not in Fespa Textile. By doing this, we are aiming to make visitors’ – in this case with an interest in digital textile – time at the show as easy as possible, and enable them to visit all the stands that could have something relevant and interesting for them.”
The European Sign Expo takes place at the same venue and features a range of products, new launches, and solutions for sign makers.
