At PRINTING United Expo, one truth stood out: the worlds of print and promo are no longer separate. They are converging into a single, collaborative ecosystem built around creativity, innovation, and customer trust. Printers are expanding from wide-format signage and wraps into branded merchandise (pens, apparel, mugs and more). At the same time, ASI promo distributors are exploring large-format print, banners, and displays. Both are answering the same customer demand: “Can you help me with everything?” That’s why ASI and the PRINTING United Alliance have joined forces. Our combined goal is education and partnership, helping professionals on both sides learn new techniques, expand their services, and become one-stop solutions for their clients. We saw extraordinary creativity on the show floor. Million-dollar machines stood next to UV layering, stained-glass printing, and stunning design innovation that redefines what’s possible. Deals were made, ideas shared, and opportunities unlocked. And we’re just getting started. Next year in Las Vegas, a dedicated ASI Pavilion with over 250 ASI suppliers will debut at Printing United Expo. This marks a milestone for the partnership and offers a vision of what the future looks like when two industries rise together. Because when education and collaboration lead, everyone grows!
