The graphic industry is changing at high speed. Automation, artificial intelligence, personalisation, new materials and sustainability are transforming the way products are made while, at the same time, opening up new business opportunities for professionals in the sector. Against this backdrop, C!Print Madrid 2027 will bring together manufacturers, distributors, printers and professionals from the printing and visual communication world at IFEMA MADRID from January 12 to 14, showcasing the technologies and trends driving this evolution.
This eleventh edition arrives with a strong market response: 90% of its more than 7,000 m² of exhibition space is already booked, with leading companies in the sector such as HP, Epson, Fujifilm, Roland DG, Mimaki, Digidelta and Konica Minolta, among others. The full, continuously updated list of exhibitors is already available on the event’s official website.
New print technologies, new business opportunities
Digital printing has considerably expanded its applications and markets, from printing, packaging and retail to textiles, decoration, signage and personalisation. C!Print Madrid aims to showcase this evolution from a practical perspective, focusing on the possibilities these technologies offer and on how to bring them into the business. Live demonstrations, a packed conference program, areas such as C!Wrap, dedicated to surface personalisation, and the new Play! Innovation Academy, focused on personalisation techniques and processes, will round out the show’s offering.
Automation and personalisation drive print growth
The need to produce more efficiently, flexibly and profitably is accelerating the automation of graphic processes. In 2027, C!Print Madrid will showcase solutions spanning production and finishing through to workflow management and the integration of software and artificial intelligence. Personalisation and short runs are, moreover, driving new production models and diversification opportunities for graphic companies.
The event’s simultaneous, adjoining staging alongside PMG Promogift, organised by FYVAR, AIMFAP and IFEMA MADRID, in the pavilion next to C!Print Madrid, reinforces this connection between printing, personalisation and brand communication. In the last edition, the two shows together drew more than 22,000 visits.
Sustainable print without sacrificing productivity
Sustainability will be another pillar of the upcoming edition. The challenge for the industry lies in taking a holistic look at materials, processes, resource consumption, energy efficiency and waste management, seeking solutions that move production toward greater responsibility without losing sight of productivity and profitability.
From January 12 to 14, 2027, C!Print Madrid will once again bring together the professionals driving this evolution: graphic companies, visual communication and personalisation professionals, advertising and design agencies, brands, retailers, creative studios, packaging, decoration and interior design companies, manufacturers and distributors, among other profiles interested in new solutions for producing, personalising and communicating. Badge registration will open in early October, and all information on exhibitors, conferences and content areas will be continually updated at salon-cprint.es.
