SignLink August / September 2024 - Issue 254

Taking place from September 17th to 19th in Hall 17 of the NEC in Birmingham, The Print Show is a dedicated exhibition for the entire print industry. As the print and signage industries continue to overlap, the solutions offered at The Print Show are becoming more and more relevant to signage businesses. This year, many wide-format manufacturers and suppliers of large-format graphics and their associated products are exhibiting at the show to demonstrate how companies can diversify their business and level up their production capabilities. With exhibitors like CMYUK, Agfa, swissQprint, Hybrid Services (Mimaki), Venture Banners, Vivid Laminating Services, and Super-Wide Digital, and more, we look at what visitors can expect from these companies at the three-day show. Going Big in 2024 An exhibitor that is returning to this year’s Print Show is Mimaki’s UK and Ireland exclusive distributor, Hybrid Services (Stand P50). The company supplies a range of printing, cutting, and software solutions for the print industry which can be used in the sign, graphics, industrial, textile, and 3D sectors of the print and signage industries. Its innovations within 3D model printing as well as direct-to-film (DTF) printing has meant Mimaki has stayed at the forefront of industry trends, allowing businesses to diversify their product range and complementary services. Andy Gregory, sales director at Hybrid Services, says: “The Print Show offers a unique opportunity to meet with key contacts in the sign, graphics, and commercial printing industry. With Mimaki’s constant flow of innovative new products, it provides a perfect platform to present the latest technology – and for visitors to absorb the industry as a whole. Speaking about the chance to network and speak to visitors, Gregory says: “We look forward to meeting businesses taking their first steps in digital printing, alongside companies with longstanding hardware WIDE-FORMAT AT THE PRINT SHOW With the upcoming Print Show at the NEC in Birmingham, we take a look at why there are more reasons than ever for sign-makers and wide-format printers to attend the three-day exhibition 69 Issue 254 - August / September 2024 email: news@signlink.co.uk THE PRINT SHOW PREVIEW
