The doors are open at the Adlux Convention Centre, where Sign India powered by Media Expo Kochi 2026 began its three-day run on 16 October 2026. 

Organized by Messe Frankfurt Trade Fairs India and BusinessLive Trade Fairs, the show has 50+ exhibitors, presenting 250+ products across 5,000 sqm gross area. The show floor draws manufacturers, technology providers, distributors, designers, consultants, advertising agencies and production managers from the region and neighbouring cities and states.

On the floor, visitors will find printing and finishing equipment, fabrication machines, digital signage, outdoor advertising solutions, inks and 3D printing. Special themes this year include LED displays, large-format printing, POP/POS branding and textile printing.

The exhibition was inaugurated by dignitaries from the industry. Speaking on the occasion, Raj Manek, executive director & board member, Messe Frankfurt Asia Holdings, said, “Kerala has a deep base of printing and signage businesses, and what they have been looking for is a platform that brings technology, suppliers and buyers together in one place. Bringing Media Expo to Kochi alongside Sign India is a strategic expansion of the platform for the industry and we are seeing a very good response from the visitors walking in. It is only the first day, but the conversations on the floor are encouraging, and we look forward to seeing how they turn into business over the next two days.”

Siva Prasad Palnati, director, BusinessLive Trade Fairs, added, “Sign India has always been about serving this market, and combining it with Media Expo broadens what visitors can see and who they can meet. Established companies and first-time exhibitors are sharing the floor, and that mix is what makes a show useful for buyers: they can compare, ask questions and find solutions they hadn’t come across before. Our aim is a platform where the industry in Kerala and beyond comes back year after year.”

With two more days to go, Sign India powered by Media Expo Kochi 2026 invites the industry to see what’s new in printing, signage and visual communication at the Adlux Convention Centre, Kochi, until 18 October 2026.
