Screenprinting & Graphics Association of India (SGAI), a national association representing the Indian screenprinting industry on the global stage, has announced the inaugural dates for SGAI Expo 2027/ASGA India Expo 2027. The much-anticipated exhibition will make its debut from January 21–23, 2027 at CIDCO Exhibition & Convention Centre in Vashi, Navi Mumbai.
India’s screenprinting industry has evolved significantly over the years, registering remarkable growth and development. With immense potential for further expansion, the industry offers vast opportunities for business growth through collaborations, partnerships, and technological advancements. However, the need for a reliable platform that brings the industry together has remained a key missing link.
The inaugural edition of SGAI Expo 2027/ASGA India Expo 2027 aims to fill this gap by providing a dedicated platform for the industry to connect, collaborate, and explore new business opportunities under one roof. Covering the entire spectrum of screenprinting and its applications, the exhibition will enable exhibitors to showcase their brands, technologies, products, and services while offering visitors valuable opportunities to network, forge business alliances, and explore emerging markets.
The exhibition is being supported by international industry associations, including the Asia Screen Printing & Graphic Imaging Association (ASGA), the European Specialist Printing Manufacturers Association (ESMA), and SDPE China 2026, the Guangzhou International Screen Printing and Digital Intelligent Printing Expo.
Sharing his views on the exhibition, Anil Brahmbhatt, President of SGAI, said, “The Indian screenprinting industry is witnessing accelerated growth. As President of SGAI, I invite you to reap the benefits of its progress and development by being present at the inaugural edition of this pathbreaking event. This new show is set to become among the world’s leading and Asia’s finest exhibitions, attracting business visitor delegates from many countries. We look forward to your presence and welcome you to join us for a truly international exhibition experience at a truly world-class venue. Let’s take the screenprinting industry to even greater heights by coming together at this dedicated event of the industry, for the industry and by the industry!”
Screenprinting continues to hold a significant position in the printing industry, owing to its cost-effectiveness, versatility, and suitability for a wide range of applications. While other printing technologies have their own limitations, screenprinting has retained its relevance and moved up the value chain. Rising domestic consumption, coupled with supportive government policies and the Make in India initiative, is creating further opportunities for Indian businesses to expand their reach and tap into international markets.
The exhibitor profile will encompass technology developers, knowledge providers, manufacturers, distributors, dealers, service providers, and allied businesses involved in screenprinting, textile printing, and digital printing. The visitor profile will include leading industrial screenprinters, technicians, consultants, industry professionals, entrepreneurs, and product or service providers catering to end-users who employ screenprinting, textile printing, and digital printing as substantial parts of their operations.
Established in 2006, the Screenprinting & Graphics Association of India has played an important role in the development of India’s screenprinting and graphics imaging industry. Over nearly two decades, the association has served as a catalyst for industry growth, working to strengthen the sector’s representation and expand its business opportunities both domestically and internationally.
SGAI continues to work towards raising the profile of Indian screenprinting businesses, opening up new markets, and helping its members establish connections with business communities in neighbouring countries. The association also maintains close ties with international industry bodies, including ASGA, ESMA, and SPAK, to facilitate cross-border collaboration and help its members explore opportunities in overseas markets.
