FESPA Unveils Strong Exhibitor Line-Up For Inaugural Textile Event In 2026
FESPA has confirmed a robust exhibitor line-up for its inaugural Textile event, set to debut as part of FESPA 2026. The new dedicated showcase will run alongside co-located events including Global Print Expo, Personalisation Experience, European Sign Expo, WrapFest, and the newly introduced Corrugated.
Scheduled from May 19–22, 2026, at Fira de Barcelona, Spain, the Textile event will highlight the latest technologies, processes, and applications driving the future of printed textiles. The focus will span promotional products, print-on-demand, garment decoration, sportswear production, and interior décor.
The exhibition will feature a comprehensive range of digital textile printing and garment decoration technologies, including screen printing, direct-to-garment (DTG), direct-to-film (DTF), transfer printing, dye sublimation and roll-to-roll textile printing.
A strong roster of confirmed exhibitors includes leading names such as Kornit Digital, Mimaki, EPSON, Brother International, ROQ International and Tajima Europe, alongside a wide range of other manufacturers specialising in print-on-demand and high-volume garment decoration.
Screen printing solutions will also be represented by companies such as Anatol and Saati Iberica, while suppliers including Sun Chemical will showcase advanced textile inks and materials focused on performance, durability and sustainability.
In addition, workflow, colour management and production software solutions will be presented by brands like Fiery and DRAWstitch International.
Callum Legg, Group Sales and Project Manager at FESPA, highlighted textile printing and garment decoration as one of the fastest-growing segments in the specialty print sector. He noted that the new event aims to provide industry professionals with access to relevant technologies, expertise, and applications to support business growth.
Debbie McKeegan, CEO of Texintel and FESPA’s Textile Ambassador, emphasised the importance of addressing current industry challenges while exploring how emerging technologies and trends will reshape manufacturing across fashion, sportswear, and interiors.
Visitors to the Textile event will also gain free access to ‘The Conference’, which will focus on intelligent production and customisation. A single ticket will grant entry to all co-located events and additional conference programmes centred on corrugated and wrapping, making FESPA 2026 a comprehensive platform for innovation across the print and textile ecosystem.
