The textile industry is undergoing profound transformation thanks to digital technology of fabric printing machines. In that context, the VNITCPE 2025 Exhibition (Vietnam International Textile and Clothing Printing Expo) . With the theme focusing on digital fabric printing solutions and CAD design technology in the garment industry , this year’s event is considered a turning point, opening a strategic direction for businesses that want to improve production capacity and innovate the design – production – distribution value chain.
VNITCPE 2025 – The Textile Technology Event to Look Forward to
VNITCPE Exhibition is an annual specialized event that brings together hundreds of businesses, suppliers, design engineers, printing experts and textile technology equipment manufacturers from all over the world. New generation digital textile printing systems
- CAD design software applying AI and 3D
- On-demand manufacturing solutions
- Automate the design – cut – sew line
The event is a place where design innovation, smart manufacturing technology and product personalization trends intersect – which are currently the three main development pillars of the modern garment industry.
Digital Fabric Printing Technology
Digital Textile Printing (DTP) is no longer a new trend but has become an essential part of digital garment manufacturing. Unlike traditional printing methods, DTP allows printing directly onto fabric with:
- High resolution , reproduces true color details
- Print on demand capability , unlimited number of samples
- Optimize production costs , minimize inventory and risk of misprints
At VNITCPE 2025, major brands such as Kornit Digital, Epson, Mimaki, Atexco introduced many lines of UV printers, pigment, reactive and sublimation printers with outstanding speed, integrated color management system (CMS) and software to synchronize design patterns directly from CAD platform.
In particular, 3D printing technology on fabric surfaces and the application of biological ink have attracted the attention of many businesses pursuing the trend of “greening” the production chain.
CAD Design – Elevate Creativity and Accelerate Market
Computer-Aided Design (CAD) software is completely changing the way designers interact with the product development process. In a digital environment, CAD is not only a pattern making tool but also supports:
- 3D design simulates on the wearer’s avatar
- Optimize materials and patterns before putting into production
- Direct connection to automatic cutting system or printer
Several CAD systems introduced at VNITCPE such as Gerber AccuMark, CLO 3D, Optitex, and Lectra are capable of synchronizing design and manufacturing data and analyzing material consumption – thereby helping businesses better control time and costs.
Opportunities for Vietnamese Enterprises
VNITCPE 2025 opens up many opportunities for Vietnamese businesses looking to transform traditional production models into digital ones . Some prominent technology application directions include:
- Increase production capacity for low-MOQ products to meet the needs of diversifying export markets.
- Improve time-to-market , especially in fast fashion segments
- Building a short, efficient and transparent supply chain , from design to delivery
- Minimize inventory risk and material waste , thanks to accurate simulation capabilities
In addition, access to fabric printing technology and CAD design helps improve competitiveness, not only in the domestic market but also expands export potential to Europe, Japan and the US – markets with high requirements for flexibility and sustainability in production.
Redefining the Textile Value Chain
The combination of digital textile printing technology and CAD design is redefining the textile and garment industry value chain. No longer just “mass production, low cost”, businesses are now aiming for a smart – creative – sustainable production model . This is the key for the Vietnamese garment industry to make a breakthrough in the post-pandemic period, while quickly adapting to stricter international standards on the environment and origin of raw materials.
Conclude
VNITCPE 2025 is not only a place to showcase technology but also a strategic platform for global garment enterprises – including Vietnam – to learn, connect and transform. The garment industry with digital fabric printing equipment and CAD design is a necessary step to maintain its position and be ready for the future of the smart textile industry.
