Fespa has launched the promotional campaign for its Global Print Expo 2022 and European Sign Expo 2022 events, which will take place later this year in Berlin.

The campaign strapline, ‘Experience Print in Motion’, is said to highlight how, despite the challenges of the past two years, the speciality print market and the technology that supports it continue to evolve and progress.

“Speciality print businesses are back up and running and making future plans, and Fespa Global Print Expo 2022 will give them fresh momentum, supporting them with investment decisions and ideas development at a critical time in the sector’s sustained recovery,” said head of Fespa Global Print Expo Michael Ryan.

“After more than two years dominated by virtual alternatives, business decision-makers really need the energy and connections that only live events enable.

“The true value of a Fespa event for exhibitors and visitors is the wider experience: close-up views of technology and consumables; making human connections; networking with like-minded business people; being inspired and discovering the latest technologies and consumables.

“In Amsterdam last autumn, we took the first steps to bringing colour back to speciality print. Now we all need to experience print in motion.”

This year’s show is scheduled to take place from 31 May to 3 June 2022 at Messe Berlin. The German capital has previously hosted Fespa exhibitions in 2007 and 2018, and organisers said the facilities and travel connections make the venue a popular destination among exhibitors and visitors.

Occupying eight halls, the 2022 event will provide a platform for technological innovation in digital wide-format, screen, and textiles printing. Over 250 suppliers are confirmed to exhibit so far, including Brother, Canon, Durst, Fujifilm, HP, Kornit, Mimaki, and M&R.

Fespa’s Printeriors interior decor feature will highlight the opportunities in printed interior decor, once again taking the form of an interactive visitor experience.

World Wrap Masters will also return, offering visitors the chance to see European vehicle wrappers compete for the title of World Wrap Master Europe 2022, followed by the showdown of the regional competition winners in the World Wrap Masters final.

European Sign Expo will showcase technology and materials, enabling visitors to see the application opportunities in areas including channel lettering, dimensional signage, engraving and etching, and LED.

The event website is now live at: fespaglobalprintexpo.com. It includes the latest event information, an up-to-date exhibitor list, interactive floorplan, Covid-19 guidance, and visitor information. Visitor registration will open on 1 March 2022, but interest can be registered now via the site.
