Roland DG has announced it will use The Sign Show 2026 to demonstrate new several new hardware solutions, while visitors will also be able to view other, established technologies from the manufacturer. One of many exhibitors returning for the second edition of The Sign Show, Roland DG will have a much larger presence at this year’s event. Based on stand S210 near the entrance to the hall, the manufacturer will be seeking to build on its success in year one and connect with more visitors this autumn. Attendees can expect to see a mixture of roll-to-roll print and cut machines and UV flatbed printers on the Roland DG stand, as well as several new models that have not yet been released to the market. In addition, visitors can gain insight into new software and workflow innovations, designed to boost productivity and creativity across both signage and print businesses. “After such a fantastic 2025 event, with incredible energy, strong attendance, and a real buzz across both shows, we’re genuinely excited to be coming back,” says Rob Goleniowski, regional general manager for the UK, Ireland, Scandinavia and Baltics at Roland DG, adding: “It’s a brilliant opportunity for us to reconnect with our customers, spend quality time with industry peers, and be right at the heart of such a dynamic and innovative sector. “We’re really looking forward to showcasing the latest innovations from Roland DG, while spending valuable face-to-face time with our customers and meeting plenty of new ones. It’s all about sharing ideas, exploring new applications, and helping businesses unlock fresh opportunities for growth, while, of course, supporting our own ambitions too.” Goleniowski also spoke about the importance of having shows dedicated to both the UK sign and print industries, setting out how The Sign Show and co-located The Print Show serve as key meeting points for the domestic markets. “The Print Show and The Sign Show are hugely important for the UK industry,” Goleniowski says, continuing: “Not everyone can attend major international events like FESPA, so having a high-calibre, accessible exhibition here in the UK is vital. “It gives print professionals and signmakers a chance to experience the latest innovations first-hand, speak directly with manufacturers, and leave inspired with new ideas to grow their businesses.” LKH Tools will exhibit at The Sign Show for the second consecutive year, with a focus again on connecting UK signage professionals with high-quality solutions. The company is the UK distributor for Crown Norge precision CNC routing tools, with visitors at this year’s show having the opportunity to see these products first hand. Commenting on the return, managing director Liam Hodson says that the company was able to generate a high number of quality leads at the first edition of the show, with its aim to build on this in the autumn. “We had a very good three days and met plenty of customers new and old,” Hodson says, adding: “It exceeded our expectations and the leads we took at the event were very good. We are now looking forward to the next show. “We feel that The Sign Show will expand into a major exhibition for both the sign and print industry, and we want to be a part of that. It’s a great show in a good central location and people should consider exhibiting and visiting for 2026.” Quality Print Services (QPS) has revealed it will switch from The Print Show to The Sign Show for the 2026 events as it seeks to capture wider interest in its wide-format print solutions. Based on stand 150, the company will showcase a range of products for this area of the print and sign sectors, including inks, media, printers and software. QPS is a long-term supporter of The Print Show and was in attendance at the event last year. However, moving across the hall to The Sign Show – and in a more central location – means the company will be able to connect with its key audience across both the print and signage markets. Since last year’s show, QPS has added several new machines to its extensive line-up of wide-format print products. Among these is the Vulcan Hybrid 1800, a new-generation UV hybrid printer from ColorJet. The new model can print at speeds of up to 45sq m/hr in high production three-row CMYK mode. Built around an advanced conveyor belt, the machine ensures smooth and stable handling of both flexible media and lightweight rigid boards up to 20mm thick.
