The inaugural edition of Screen Print Innovations (SPI) – the new trade show dedicated exclusively to screen printing – was held from 3–5 June 2025 at Messe Essen and delivered a resounding success. Nearly 1,000 professionals from 50 countries attended the premiere, reuniting the global screen-printing community under one roof. From hardware manufacturers and ink formulators to integrators, value-added resellers, and brand owners, the show attracted a diverse cross-section of attendees. All came to gain insight into how screen printing continues to drive innovation in sectors such as automotive, printed electronics, luxury packaging, and healthcare.

Organised by the European Specialist Printing Manufacturers Association (ESMA), SPI positioned itself as a unique platform that connects suppliers, system developers, and end users across diverse applications – helping shape the future of screen printing.
