The workshops will provide visitors with demonstrations of the latest textile printing techniques such as heat transfers, rhinestones and manual screen printing, enabling visitors to try their hand at these technologies.

Fespa Marketing Manager, Lynda Sutton, comments: “There’s a lot on offer for visitors to Fespa China and CSGIA 2014. Educational content plays a big part in all of our Fespa events. Seminars at Fespa China & CSGIA 2013 were well attended and 12% of visitors gave seminars as a key reason for attending, which underlines the appetite for education and best practice in the region. Following last year’s inaugural show, we have built on these features to tailor them to the Chinese market and ensure they deliver the greatest benefit for visitors.”
