(PRESS RELEASE) FAIRFAX, VA — Printing United Expo 2021 will feature a range of companies from various market segments of the printing industry at the Orange County Convention Center (OCCC) in Orlando, Fla., on Oct. 6-8. Registration for the event, which includes access to Expo Preview, Expo Live, and Expo Wrap-Up, is available at printingunited.com.
Throughout the pandemic, companies have been forced to modify original plans for both technology coming to market and respective sales projections. Printing United Expo hopes to be a launching point to refuel sales pipelines and new technology debuts in 2021 and beyond.
A sampling of these companies and segments include:
Apparel
In the experiential Apparel Zone, exhibitors such as Delta Apparel, Epson, GSG, Kornit, M&R, Mimaki, Monti Antonio, Nazdar, OmniPrint, Roland, SanMar, Stahls’, and Vastex will display and demonstrate new technology in the space. A café and beer garden are central to the area, which will be a gathering spot for business meetings, peer-to-peer engagement, and relaxing with friends and colleagues. Attendees can select from one of four designs to see and keep a custom T-shirt made on a screen or direct-to-garment (DTG) digital machine, and will have a chance to win one of various prizes from the Apparel Zone sponsors. They can also listen to apparel-focused podcasts in the specially created podcast booth where podcasts will be broadcast live each day from the show.
