Printwear and Promotion LIVE! 2026 – Our Busiest Show Yet!

Printwear and Promotion LIVE! 2026 – Our Busiest Show Yet!

Adrianne Sedgmore |

The UK’s leading embroidery and garment exhibition show is always a highlight of the year, and this year’s event, held from 22nd–24th February, certainly didn’t disappoint. Each year the show continues to grow, and for us, this was officially our busiest one yet.

We were proud to showcase our extensive range of Embroidery Backings, Frames, and Accessories whilst welcoming over 500 customers to our stand across the three days. From long time clients to brand new faces, it was fantastic to connect, share knowledge, and talk all things embroidery.

Our custom built stand once again made a huge impact on the show floor. Designed to put our core product ranges front and centre, the space was both eye-catching and hands-on. As specialists in embroidery backings, we made sure visitors could see and feel the quality for themselves, with our most popular rolls available to touch, test, and take samples from. With the widest range of backings available, this area remained a constant hub of activity throughout the event.

One of the biggest talking points of the exhibition was our 6ft tower built from over 1500 sheets of our Generation 2 Ultra Soft Backing. Not only did it stop visitors in their tracks, but it also formed part of a competition to win a £100 voucher, adding a little extra excitement to the stand!

We also dedicated a full wall to our Mighty Hoops, the largest range available in the UK, allowing visitors to view every size at a glance. Live demonstrations ran throughout the show, with our team showing just how effortless and efficient hooping can be.

We handed out our incredibly super soft ETC doggies to promote our Generation 2 Ultra Soft Backing. They were a huge hit, with visitors of all ages making sure they didn’t leave without one.

The energy across the three days was fantastic. We had meaningful conversations, strengthened existing relationships, built new ones, and celebrated everything that makes the embroidery industry such a great community to be part of.

A huge thank you to everyone who visited us, we’re already looking forward to next year!
