What is FESPA? FESPA is an organisation, but also gives its name to events, for example, The FESPA Exhibition and FESPA Seminars. Formerly the name FESPA stood for 'The Federation of European Screen Printers Associations'. Now with the advent of Digital Technology, FESPA is known by its acronym which has world-wide recognition. FESPA's objective is promoting Screenprinting and Digital Imaging through each of the 26 separate National Associations in Europe who are its members.
What does FESPA do now? - Plans and promotes the FESPA Exhibition in close co-operation with ESMA as the largest and most comprehensive event world-wide for screenprinting and wide format digital imaging. - Is working within the emerging markets in Central and Eastern Europe to promote screenprinting and wide format digital imaging by providing technical training information and through its programme of 'mini-FESPA's' comprising low cost product information booths and technical seminars. - Provides a regular forum for information exchange between member Associations resulting in help from the larger to the smaller Associations in recruitment, training and technical studies. - Through the pages of the FESPA Magazine - European Screen Printer and Digital Imager (published three times a year in four languages) - provides full communication between member Associations and highlights important developments affecting screenprinting and wide format digital imaging. - Monitors new developments in screenprinting and digital technology and communicates the results to members through seminars and press articles. - Works with ESMA to develop higher standards of Health and Safety within the factory and seeks to ensure that legislation on environmental control is realistic and achievable. - Promotes screenprinting and digital imaging to the end user through Press Articles.
