Textile printing looks set to be one of the stars of the show when the Printing United Expo returns later this year. The event, set to take place at the Orange County Convention Centre from 6-8 October, is returning after a pandemic-enforced hiatus. 

Printing United debuted in the Autumn of 2019, following the rebranding of SGIA Expo as a platform to connect the entire print industry, before last year’s event in Atlanta, Georgia was postponed as a result of the Coronavirus .

The October event is set to feature an Apparel Zone, where exhibitors such as Delta Apparel, Epson, GSG, Kornit, M&R, Mimaki, Monti Antonio, Nazdar, OmniPrint, Roland, SanMar, Stahls and Vastex will all showcase their latest technology. Visitors to the space will also have the opportunity to design and print their own souvenir shirts using direct-to-garment or screen printing technology.

Other companies that will be exhibiting their textiles technology in Florida will include Berger Textiles, Brother, Brown Manufacturing, EFI, Fisher Textiles, Gerber, Greentex, HP, Kongsberg, Kornit, Mutoh, Sakurai, Serge Ferrari, TVF, Ultraflex, and Zund. Printing United will also be welcoming Industrial Fabrics Association International to event as an Association Partner.

When it comes to wide-format, including soft signage, 3M, Agfa, Durst, EFI, Epson, Esko, Fujifilm, HP, INX, Mimaki, Nazdar, Onyx Graphics, Roland DGA, TVF, Ultraflex, and Vanguard will all be taking the opportunity to show of their latest equipment.
