At FESPA Barcelona 2026, Konfiwear did not arrive with a roadmap deck or a "coming soon" banner. V2 was running — in production — at Stand A40d. Every demo, every quote, every design export came from the same platform our customers use every day. That was the point.
The FESPA Global Print Expo 2026 opened its doors at Fira Barcelona from May 19 to 22, drawing the global print, signage, and customization industry into Hall 3 for four days of live technology, production workflows, and face-to-face deal-making.
For Konfiwear, Barcelona was not a soft launch. It was the moment we stepped onto the floor as a mature, live platform — not a preview, not a beta, not a promise of what might ship next quarter. Visitors who stopped by Stand A40d did not have to imagine the product. They could configure apparel in real time, walk through the quote pipeline, and see production-ready files generated on the spot.
The takeaway was simple: Konfiwear V2 is published, in production, and already powering real businesses. FESPA was where we proved it.
FESPA Barcelona is one of the largest gatherings in the print and visual communications calendar — a show built for people who move ink, fabric, and data at scale. Hall 3 was packed with manufacturers, software vendors, and production teams evaluating what comes next for their workflows.
At Stand A40d, the foot traffic told the story. Print businesses looking to modernize their customization stack. Sportswear brands evaluating 3D configurators for teamwear and retail. Packaging and promotional product companies exploring how to connect design tools to order fulfillment without manual handoffs.
The recurring question from visitors was straightforward: "What's next for Konfiwear?"
Our answer was already online. Not a teaser page. Not a waitlist. The full platform — live at konfiwear.com.
The headline from Barcelona is unambiguous: Konfiwear V2 is published and running in production.
The numbers back it up:
That is not a concept metric from a pitch deck. It is the footprint of a platform that has moved well beyond a 3D customizer into a full apparel customization workflow — from product setup and design through quoting, integrations, and print-ready output.
At the stand, we did not ask visitors to trust a slide. We opened the dashboard, loaded their use case, and let the product speak.
Konfiwear V2 is built for print businesses that have outgrown patched-together tools — separate configurators, manual quote spreadsheets, disconnected eCommerce plugins, and file prep done by hand at the last minute.
On the floor, we walked through the capabilities that define the platform today:
One platform. One workflow. Built for teams that need customization to scale without adding headcount.

FESPA is a core go-to-market channel for Konfiwear — not a one-off appearance, but a deliberate rhythm in how we reach the print and apparel industry.
Last year at FESPA Berlin 2025, we showed what the customizer could do live on the floor for the first time. Barcelona 2026 was the next chapter: same stand energy, but a fundamentally different message. The product shipped.
Trade shows reward one thing above all else: proof. Describing a roadmap gets polite nods. Showing a working product — with real brands, real quotes, and real production files — gets conversations that turn into partnerships.
That is the shift Konfiwear made between Berlin and Barcelona: from promising to proven.
Barcelona generated a long list of follow-ups — demo requests, integration questions, and production workflow reviews from teams we met at Stand A40d. Those conversations are already underway.
If you were not at FESPA, the invitation is open. V2 is live. You do not need to wait for the next trade show to see what we showed on the floor — the same platform is available now at konfiwear.com.
The work to get here is done. The platform is running. The ambition from here goes higher — more integrations, more automation, more ways for print businesses to grow without rebuilding their stack every year.
FESPA Barcelona 2026 marked Konfiwear's step up: a mature, production-ready platform proven on the show floor, not promised in a deck. V2 is live for 200+ brands across 20+ countries, with 10M+ designs and counting — and we showed every bit of it at Stand A40d.
If you build custom apparel and your tools are holding you back, there is no better time to see what Konfiwear V2 can do for your workflow.
