Trade printer specializing in sign and display applications gains full range of Scodix embellishments for business growth
Leading trade printer, Precise Digital Printing Graphics (PDP), has invested in a new Scodix Ultra 2000 Digital Enhancement Press, bringing a wide range of embellishment choices to customers, adding impact to their printed applications with Scodix embellishments such as foil, glitter, metallic, braille, spot UV, and cast-and-cure embellishments to printers in the U.S., particularly in the Chicago area.
“Its just amazing what this Scodix press can do and the fact that we can spot UV and foil stamp sheets as large as 21? x 31″ is game changing,” asserts Kevin Grouwinkel, V.P. Sales & Marketing for Precise Digital Printing. “After more than six months of rigorous testing of all the comparable models on the market, in the end, we felt the build and quality of Scodix was far superior. The feeding system is able to handle all the different papers on our feed table and the paper handling and registration was exceptional.”

This allows operators to quickly adapt to whatever print job comes in from customers, whatever the level of ink coverage or substrate chosen, and for the business to future proof – leaving the door open for polymers suitable for food compliance or security measures. Rapid polymer switching also allows PDP to maximize its performance and productivity as the company expands its customer base, offering new services around customized and short-run embellishment.

From prototyping to full production runs, the Scodix press will embellish print from PDPs three HP Scitex printers, providing a perfect complement to its existing services, positioning the company to grow its market share.
