SDPE CHINA 2026 to Showcase New Future of Printing
As the wave of digital and intelligent transformation sweeps across the global printing industry, the Guangdong-Hong Kong-Macao Greater Bay Area, with its open and inclusive development pattern and hub advantage connecting domestic and international markets, is emerging as a core strategic pivot linking ‘Made in China’ with the global market.
The 2026 Guangzhou International Screen & Smart Industrial Printing Expo is scheduled to be held at Area B of Canton Fair Complex in Guangzhou from 18-20 November 2026. With the core theme of ‘Intelligent Gathering in the Greater Bay Area, Printing Leads the New Future’, this expo firmly anchors its foreign trade-oriented positioning, focuses on the digital and intelligent upgrading trend of the printing industry, and builds a bridge for domestic screen printing and digital enterprises to directly access the global market. It helps enterprises accurately connect with overseas demand efficiently, secure international orders, and seize new tracks in the global screen printing and digital industry competition.
As a benchmark foreign trade expo with significant industry influence in the field of screen printing and digital printing, this mega event has always adhered to the core mission of ‘Global Sourcing, Precise Matching, and Value Co-Creation’. Different from the generalised layout of comprehensive expos, relying on Guangzhou’s inherent advantages as an international trade hub and the complete printing industry cluster ecosystem in the Guangdong-Hong Kong-Macao Greater Bay Area, the expo takes the precise invitation of high-quality overseas buyers as a core task, and strives to create an enabling platform where “participation brings global business opportunities and connection promotes trade achievement.”
The expo will fully cover core segments of the entire industrial chain, such as cutting-edge digital inkjet equipment, innovative screen printing consumables, and AI intelligent printing solutions, realising precise matching between high-quality supply and global procurement demand. It is expected to gather nearly 500 internationally renowned enterprises to exhibit cutting-edge equipment, high-end materials, and leading technologies, attracting more than 30,000 professional buyers from home and abroad to negotiate. It will empower the high-quality development of the screen printing and digital industry and jointly depict a new blueprint for digital and intelligent printing.
The exhibition offers a platform for precise customer acquisition through face-to-face communication with professional buyers from over 90 countries, facilitating efficient order conversion. It promotes brand globalisation by enhancing the international visibility and influence of enterprises and products based on the expo’s strategic foreign trade positioning. Furthermore, the event enables resource integration by connecting participants with the entire industrial chain resources such as cross-border e-commerce platforms, foreign trade service institutions, and industry associations. Attendees can also gain valuable insights into the latest technological trends in the global screen and digital printing industries and changes in overseas market demand. A major feature is the participation of the Beijing Future Packaging Technology Research Institute, which will showcase cutting-edge achievements in intelligent and green packaging technology and solutions combining digital printing with advanced packaging design to help enterprises enhance their competitive advantage, on-site.
SDPE CHINA 2026 stands as a pivotal event for the screen and digital printing industry. Visitors and participants to Guangzhou can witness the latest technological innovations, seize business opportunities, and shape the future of the printing industry together.
