ROQ Textile Printing Plans for ITMA ASIA + CITME 2026

10 September 2026: ROQ textile printing technologies form the focus of a supplied announcement outlining the company’s planned participation in ITMA ASIA + CITME 2026, scheduled for 20-24 November in Shanghai, China. The proposed meetings would give garment decorators a chance to discuss printing and finishing requirements, although ROQ’s attendance awaits separate public confirmation.

The official exhibition website confirms the dates and the National Exhibition and Convention Center, Shanghai, as the venue. The supplied announcement names Hall 8.2, Booth C19.

What do the ROQ textile printing plans cover ?

The announcement proposes discussions with ROQ’s commercial team about automatic screen printing, digital and hybrid production, direct-to-film (DTF) transfer application, drying and packaging. It does not identify a machine-by-machine display list or a live demonstration schedule. These distinctions matter: a product’s availability in ROQ’s catalogue does not establish that the company will bring it to Shanghai. The technologies described below provide background on its existing range.

Combining screen and digital processes

ROQ’s official ROQ HYBRID description explains that the system combines direct-to-garment digital printing with screen printing and requires a screen-printing machine to operate. The company describes using the screen process for preparatory tasks while the digital station handles colour.

Screen Print India’s earlier ROQ hybrid printing overview offers further background on this combination. For buyers, the useful discussion is how such equipment would fit their current press configuration and actual mix of orders, rather than whether one process should replace every other method.

DTF application and garment handling

DTF transfer application is a separate part of the production discussion. Screen Print India’s April 2025 report on ROQ NOW and IMPRESS describes equipment for transfer feeding, protective-film removal and garment unloading. That report concerned an earlier product announcement linked to FESPA 2025.

Garment handling also appears in the publication’s coverage of ROQ NOW neck-tag integration. These examples give printers concrete topics to raise when discussing automation, without implying that either configuration has a confirmed place on the 2026 stand.

Looking beyond the printing station

ROQ’s official Print, Pack and Ship solution connects digital printing with drying, folding, packaging and labelling. The company lists ROQ NOW, the ROQ SAHARA dryer and an automatic packaging line as components.
