DS Printech China to be held in Guangzhou from May 16-18, 2023

As one of Asia’s most prominent textile printing platforms, this year’s show will welcome fairgoers seeking to take advantage of the projected business climate, with expansion expected for both the digital textile printing and screen printing markets, the fair’s co-organiser Messe Frankfurt said in a press release.

The upcoming edition of digital and screen printing trade fair DS Printech China will be held from May 16–18, 2023 at the China Import and Export Fair Complex in Guangzhou, China. With the market showing strong signs of growth in China and beyond, the event aims to offer an important avenue for exhibitors to increase their foothold in the region.

“With parts of the country opening up for business, I am pleased that we can help rekindle the in-person industry next year in Guangzhou. The disrupted trade fair schedule, paired with a growing textile printing sector, has left buyers and exhibitors eager for DS Printech China’s resumption,” commented Wilmet Shea, general manager of Messe Frankfurt (HK) Ltd.

Known as the “next generation” of textile printing, the digital textile printing market is poised for a CAGR of 12.1 per cent during 2022-2030, due to its accuracy, speed, and small volume capabilities. Much of the growth will be driven by increased demand in China and other parts of the Asia Pacific. However, this has not detracted from the screen printing market, particularly in China, where an anticipated 21.6 per cent CAGR until 2027 is expected to well exceed the global average.

DS Printech China is a rebranding of two events: CSGIA and Textile Digital Printing China. The debut edition in Shenzhen in 2020 attracted 200 exhibitors, who connected with 8,853 visitors and over 130,000 online participants.

The fair is co-organised by Messe Frankfurt (HK) Ltd, China Screen Printing & Graphic Imaging Association (CSGIA), and Guangzhou Teyin Exhibition Service.
