FESPA Fabric rebrands to reflect the fast-growing textile sector

FESPA Textile, formally known as FESPA Fabric, will open its doors alongside FESPA Digital 2016, in Amsterdam next year.

The recent FESPA Print Census found that textile is one of the fastest growing areas of digital print globally and this rebrand is recognition of such growth.

FESPA Textile will occupy a dedicated hall of 7,342sq m, with many pieces of textile equipment and applications on display.

Visitors will have every opportunity to investigate the most appropriate digital textile solutions for their business at the event which takes place from March 8 to 11.

Roz McGuinness, FESPA divisional director said: “The results of our FESPA Print Census highlighted that textile printing for garments and décor are huge growth areas, with textile printing for soft signage not far behind. With this in mind, rebranding the former FESPA Fabric as FESPA Textile was a logical solution. We know that textile covers many different areas, from garments, to interiors, banners and beyond, and we are confident that next year’s event will be a key launch platform for many technology innovations in this dynamic segment of speciality print.”

Exhibitors already confirming their presence at FESPA Textile include Brother, Kiian Digital, Stahls and Kornit Digital.

Registration to the event is open and those who register online, using a promotional code, before January 15 will gain free access to all FESPA events between March 8 and 11. Registration after this date will be subject to a €40 entry fee.
