News this week: Earlier this week, UBM Asia announced the acquisition of digital textile printing trade show China (Shanghai)
International Printing Industry Expo (CSTPF) from SUNEXPO Exhibition. UBM added that Mr. Gong Changming, general manager of CSTPF, will
continue to lead the CSTPF staff and the team will join UBM China’s Shanghai office. Financial details of the deal were not disclosed.
CSTPF was launched by SUNEXPO in 2009. The 2013 edition of CSTPF attracted
158 exhibitors and occupied gross space of 12,000 m2 at the Shanghai New International Expo Centre (SNIEC). More than 15,200 visitors and buyers attended the show, including
overseas visitors from Italy, the U.S., U.K., Germany, France, Japan, Korea,
Russia, India, Thailand, and Iran.
Jimé Essink, president & CEO of UBM Asia, commented, “We are entering a
dynamic new sector through the acquisition of CSTPF. Textile and apparel is one
of the largest and most important industries in China. The development of
digital printing has accelerated with the drive for innovation and
technological transformation in China to upgrade this industry. Today’s fast
fashion characterised by small lot and customised printing adds further demand
for digital printing.”
