In 2021, we are looking forward to the strong return of these meeting points from the large format digital printing market, where fruitful partnerships are made and meet or share news. Decal has already confirmed its assistance with its adhesive consumables in some of them.

We are talking about an itinerary made on a global scale, and it is worth getting to know it. Do you have the World Map and your passport at hand? Then, find out where some of the biggest international fairs will take place this year and mark the must visit points where you will receive the “evolution” stamp.

We start with the European continent

It is in the Spanish capital, Madrid, where the two major fairs on the Iberian Peninsula are going to be held, Digicom and C! Print. Both have a date set for September and are already part of decal's agenda.

At Digicom we can count on new equipment, applications and consumables for different sectors of visual communication. Who is going to be present in this event at IFEMA between September 14th and 16th? Digital printing professionals, photographers and designers.

At C! Print, it is the technological innovations of the digital printing market which will stand out, between September 28th and 30th. Visitors and exhibitors arrive from all over the world and can participate in workshops and lectures.

3rd stop: The Netherlands

FESPA, the largest fair on the market in Europe, will take place in the Dutch capital, Amsterdam. RAI opens its doors between October 12th and 15th, and decal has already guaranteed its exhibition space, and expects to surpass the way in which it surprised visitors in its last edition.

The completely innovative 360o virtual experience showed the factory from which decal exports to more than 50 countries, and many more are expected to be reached with the news 2021 brings. Among them, there are products for interior decoration with textures and personalization possibilities.

We continue towards the Asian continent

Last stops: United States of America

The last stops are made in this country, where thousands of events have already been scheduled for 2021. The list is vast and you can choose the most interesting stops for your company at https://10times.com/usa/printing.

When selecting a destination, we opted for two international fairs held in Las Vegas. The White Label World Expo, used to receiving around 20,000 visitors, is scheduled for March 10th and 11th. The following month, between April 7th and 9th, the International Sign Expo takes place and includes online transmission to receive "virtual tours" from all around the world.
