Returning after a series of successful shows, Hybrid Services will be showcasing a variety of Mimaki solutions at The Print Show in September

Hybrid Services has revealed it will use The Print Show 2026 to demonstrate “exciting” new technology from Mimaki, with the aim of capturing the interest of professionals from across a range of markets.
Taking place from September 29th to October 1st at the NEC in Birmingham, The Print Show will celebrate its tenth anniversary this autumn, while sister and co-located event The Sign Show will return for its second instalment.
Hybrid Services has been a regular exhibitor at The Print Show over the years, appearing at several events. For 2025, it exhibited within The Sign Show section of the hall and this year will make the move back across the hall to The Print Show.
With both events still six months away, many exhibitors are yet to confirm what they will be showcasing. However, Hybrid Services has offered an insight into what visitors can expect on Stand P400, with the company pledging to display brand-new technology.
“The Print Show will come at an important time, enabling us to present some very exciting new technology from Mimaki, so we look forward to sharing more information in the run up to the exhibition,” says John Roberts, managing director of Hybrid Services.
“Naturally, we’ll be showcasing a comprehensive range of Mimaki technologies across sign and graphics, industrial products and textile sectors, highlighting the breadth of capability that’s within the line-up.
“Innovation remains central to Mimaki, so visitors can expect to see new developments sitting alongside proven, production-ready systems on our stand and as always, there will be a strong focus on real-world applications, helping visitors understand how the technology translates into profitable output.”
This year will be Hybrid’s largest ever presence at The Print Show, which Roberts says reflects how important the event is to Mimaki’s distributor in the UK and Ireland.
“We’ve supported the event since the very beginning, and it remains a great opportunity to present the full breadth of Mimaki technology,” Roberts adds. “The Print Show allows us to showcase a complete picture of what’s possible, and to have more rounded, strategic conversations with visitors, so expanding the stand this year is a natural step forward for Hybrid.
“The event plays an important role in bringing the UK industry together. It attracts a wide cross-section of visitors, from established sign-makers and print providers to businesses exploring new areas of investment, and that breadth is what makes it so relevant."
