P&P LIVE! 2026 Review
A great show John Howard, Regatta Professional sales manager – “Printwear & Promotion LIVE! is and always has been a joy to attend and showcase our new market-leading products. “The interactions we enjoy during the show with
distributors and decorators of promotional and corporate workwear are vital to ensure the wider market learns about our new products. “This year, we truly led the way with our new circular
workwear range,
Recycle.me, and the buzz around the range only strengthened our commitment to both the show and the direction our sustainability journey is taking.”
Back after 20 years Exhibiting at Printwear & Promotion LIVE! For the fi rst time in 20 years, MiRiCal Emblems was delighted with the response from more than one hundred existing and potential customers who visited its booth during the three-day show. The Nottinghamshire-based technical transfer specialist

Sophie Woodliffe, Regatta Professional category manager – “It has been fantastic to receive such positive feedback on the launch of our industry-leading
Recycle.me range at P&P LIVE!
“It is encouraging to see such genuine interest and
excitement as we take this signifi cant step forward in developing a circular, textile-to-textile clothing range.”
Jonathan Dul, managing director at MiRiCal Emblems – “We were really pleased with the interest in our products and services from visitors to our booth at the show and have already received orders for printed products and heat presses from new customers, with hopefully more to come. “We received comments

from a number of visitors saying that they had tried DTF and were dissatisfi ed with the performance of the resulting product, and were looking for a supplier with exactly the sort of technical performance that our products are known for. “We are already committing to the 2027 edition of the show and looking to secure a bigger booth.”
focuses on its highly durable transfers and emblems that seek to plug the gaps in the market that DTF cannot achieve – true dye-sublimation blocking capability, accreditation for use on fl ame-retardant and anti-static garments and accreditation to Oeko-Tex Standard 100 in addition to a range of refl ective transfer options. The show coincided with MiRiCal’s announcement that it had acquired the heat transfer business of Birmingham-based Ikon EU following its decision to exit the heat transfer market. This deal will see more than forty UK-based customers move to being supplied with their heat transfer requirements from the start of March 2026. Ikon EU will continue in business selling other printed products like badges, lanyards, safety signs and banners, but will cease production of heat transfers, with that production transferring entirely to MiRiCal’s Nottinghamshire base.
It has been a great show, and we have had some great conversations with people. Sunday was and is usually our busiest day.
The Queues were so long we had to bring more staff down to help, so it went really well, and the conversations have been fantastic; it was so good
