Printwear & Promotion LIVE! – the only exhibition dedicated to the UK garment decoration industry – will open its doors on Sunday for the first time since 2020. Taking place in Hall 12 of Birmingham’s NEC, the show runs from Sunday 24 April until Tuesday 26 April.
Thousands of garment decorators will be heading to the event to explore all that’s new from over 100 of the industry’s leading suppliers. This includes everything from ground-breaking direct to film printers to the latest sustainable clothing options.
Commenting is event director, Tony Gardner. “It seems far too long since we all last met in person. The decision to postpone the show from February was undoubtedly the right one. Although we lost a few exhibitors owing to the change in date, another 15 stands have booked since February and we are delighted to welcome 20 exhibitors who are joining us for the first time. At the moment we are anticipating an excellent visitor turnout.”
What’s on?
Aisles will feature a vast range of new equipment launches as well as 2022 printwear styles to discover. In attendance this year will also be 20 new exhibitors joining the show for the first time, including Holiauma UK, Supacolour and The Brick Factory.
Many exhibitors use the show as a launchpad to showcase their newest products. This year is no exception, with many exhibitors using P&P LIVE! to introduce their innovative direct to film printers to visitors.
New brands to discover at the exhibition this year include Jack Wolfskin, Simki and Anthem. Plus, Stanley/Stella, Craghoppers and Premier are all returning.
