Material Suppliers Zone
As one of Europe’s biggest suppliers, the key objective is to demonstrate how Spandex adds value to signmaking and digital printing businesses by offering a total solutions package from a number of leading materials brands. Avery, 3M, Mactac and ImagePerfect, Spandex’s own range of digital and signage materials, will display key products from their portfolio in this zone.
Textile & Soft Signage Application Zone
The trend towards textile substrates for sign and graphics applications is in evidence throughout this Zone where visitors will get ideas of how to take advantage of the growing textile and soft signage market. Visitors will learn how to make the most of their existing inkjet printer by using innovative textile materials combined with stylish display solutions.
On display will be Epson’s new high-resolution, large format printer GS6000 (64″) featuring an 8-colour solvent ink set, printing on ImagePerfect 2314 textile material.
Spandex will show different ways of mounting prints with a variety of sign and display systems, providing visitors with ideas on how to deliver complete solutions and a broader scope of product. For example, textile prints will be displayed with user-friendly mounting frame systems from Kunstdünger and Labate & Co.
Low Investment – High Profit Application Zone
Specifically designed to equip customers with tools to help them identify new business applications to develop their range of services, this Zone will feature different profit-making applications that can reap substantial returns with minimum capital outlay.
The Gerber Edge Fx thermal printer area will be demonstrating a vast array of revenue-making applications that can’t be easily reproduced with an inkjet printer. Applications will include printing silver and white on coloured material, barcodes; and printing onto photo-luminescent material.
A heat press in this Zone will print on T-shirts and textiles with a wide variety of TransFlex and TransFlock materials.
In addition, visitors will have access to advice from a specialist team on modular Sign Systems, accessories, banner finishing, T-Shirt printing and invaluable tips and tricks on everything to do with display systems, digital print and signage applications.
