ASOINGRAF has become the newest member of FESPA
FESPA has announced that Asociación de la Industria Gráfica Costarricense (ASOINGRAF), the national association for the graphic arts and printing industry in Costa Rica, has joined FESPA as an association member.
The decision was approved at the 2025 FESPA General Assembly, which was attended by Marco Vinicio Vargas Chevez, president of ASOINGRAF.
ASOINGRAF represents companies and professionals in the graphic arts and printing industry in Costa Rica, along with organising the Expográfica, the country’s leading trade show for the sector.
The association also delivers industry training programmes, awards ceremonies and seminars that emphasise how print and graphic arts businesses can implement sustainable practices.
By becoming a FESPA association member, ASOINGRAF joins the largest global network of national printing and graphics associations.
The partnership will help to support the sharing of technical and market knowledge in Costa Rica and the Central America region.
It will also promote the use of recognised international standards in areas such as process efficiency, colour and production management, and environmental performance, which align closely with FESPA’s knowledge-sharing platforms.
Daniel Sunderland, president of FESPA and vice president of Canagraf, FESPA’s local association in Mexico, comments: “Welcoming ASOINGRAF as a FESPA Association Member strengthens our global reach and deepens our representation in Central America.
“I am excited to seeing how FESPA can support the Costa Rican print community through ASOINGRAF’s local events and initiatives. By working with ASOINGRAF, FESPA is able to further share knowledge, drive innovation and strengthen its global community.”
ASOINGRAF will now participate in FESPA events, working groups and sustainability projects.
Its input will reflect the needs and experiences of print businesses in Costa Rica, as well as the Central American region, which will benefit the wider international FESPA community.
