The 2026 APPP EXPO Shanghai has successfully concluded.

Among the standout exhibitors, PrintWant – a leading Chinese manufacturer of DTF (Direct-to-Film) PET films – drew significant attention with its advanced product portfolio and innovative printing solutions.

As one of China’s most technically capable manufacturers of DTF films, PrintWant showcased a comprehensive range of products tailored for diverse applications. Its full lineup includes instant hot peel DTF films, hot peel DTF films, cold peel DTF films, and special functional DTF films, designed to meet strict international requirements for adhesion, weather resistance, and printing precision. Widely used in textile digital printing, custom customization and commercial signage, PrintWant has built a strong global reputation through consistent quality and continuous technological innovation.

A major highlight at the show was the launch of PrintWant’s PW301-UV 3D Printer. Breaking away from the flat-surface limitations of conventional UV printing, this machine supports multi-dimensional three-dimensional transfer. It is compatible with standard UV DTF AB films and enables high-precision output on advanced materials including 3D TPU transfer films, epoxy UV films, cold-applied label media and 3D embroidery films. Equipped with a high-precision inkjet control system and an innovative UV curing module, the PW301-UV 3D Printer delivers strong adhesion on complex surfaces, opening new profit channels for the digital printing industry.

Against the backdrop of rising personalized consumption and growing demand for flexible manufacturing, the PW301-UV 3D Printer serves high-value sectors such as electronic product exterior decoration, footwear and apparel 3D logos, cultural and festival gifts, and industrial marking, showing enormous commercial potential.

Throughout the exhibition, the system attracted numerous international buyers for on-site demonstrations, earning widespread technical recognition and strong business inquiries. PrintWant remains committed to R&D-driven growth and application-focused product development, providing global customers with high-performance, multi-scenario printing films and integrated solutions.
