PTE 2025 is buzzing with fresh features, beginning with the list of exhibitors, which includes many newcomers making their debut at this exhibition.

For Global Trading, for example, it is their first ever! The Treviso company, expert in importing fabrics and workwear since 1992 and rooted in the heritage of the old Tessitura Pietro Barbieri, will showcase three new, highly adaptable products at the exhibition: the Promech overalls and the Urban and Mech trousers, with the latter crafted from Mechanical Stretch, a novel fabric that offers softness, stretch, and durability.

This is also the first time for Signature, the company behind the Pininfarina Segno project. At PTE 2025, the renowned company, famous for its premium writing instruments, will launch its new gifting division. Thanks to a strategic partnership with Chinese giant Writech, it now broadens its Signature range to include entry-level products. The expanded catalogue will feature a variety of business accessories, from desk items to travel essentials.

At its debut at the PTE, Publiroom will showcase over 30 years of expertise in the paper converting industry, along with its flexible pad, screen, offset, and digital printing services. Design objects from the “Green Project”, made from sustainable wood, align perfectly with today's environmental consciousness, featuring in special themed catalogues, including one dedicated to the hospitality industry.

From France, the Kariban Brands Group makes its first appearance at PTE, exhibiting at the Top-Tex stand. Its varied brand range features Kariban, offering promotional textiles and accessories with a French, sustainable flair; WK. Designed to Work, specialising in work attire; Kariban Premium, catering to corporate and hospitality needs; Proact for sports apparel; Kimood for bags and accessories; K-up for hats and additional accessories; and Native Spirits, focusing on clothing made from organic, recycled, or plant-based materials. At PTE 2025, the standout products include organic cotton polo shirts produced in Portugal and a schoolwear range by Kariban, a basketball line by Proact, eco-friendly workwear and high-visibility gear by WK. Designed To Work, and event accessories by Kimood/K-up.

Even when exhibitors are not newcomers, they aim to surprise visitors with fresh brands and services as if it were their first time. Fabio Malfatto, a seasoned participant from the inaugural PTE and CEO of Eqsg, a firm with over 40 years in the promotions industry, has announced the launch of a dedicated division for agencies. “This new division will cater to the unique demands of professionals in marketing and communication,” says Malfatto. “It offers a range of top-tier brands like Androni Giocattoli, Pedrini, Origamo, Leone 1947 Apparel, Liqwid, and ReMat, with products always ready for prompt dispatch.”
