Customers involved in screen printing were invited to Portugal to explore the future of this textile printing technique together. During the three-day event, solutions combining the best traditional screen printing practices with modern digital printing technologies were showcased. Participants had the opportunity to see the production of precise and efficient screen printing carousels, as well as presentations on the capabilities of hybrid and digital printing devices, and packaging solutions. The event demonstrated a comprehensive, automated order fulfillment system that screen print manufacturers would undoubtedly appreciate.

A significant part of the trip was the premiere presentation of Avient's new line of low-temperature Unimix inks. Their main advantages are unparalleled coverage (with a single pass) and efficiency, as well as curing at lower temperatures, which allows for energy and time savings during production.

We hope the event inspired participants to reflect on the future of screen printing. We encourage you to watch the video about the event on API.PL's YouTube LINK channel to hear their thoughts and form your own opinion.

A heartfelt thank you to all the participants, especially those featured in the film: Ms. Dominika from GREENPRINT S.C., Mr. Piotr from ARCHART, Mr. Marcin from Printollo Sp. z o.o., and our co-hosts Mr. Sasa Zarkov from ROQ International and Mr. Jakub from Avient Corporation.
