Embracing the ‘value advantage’ in large format printing

Key industry professionals are coming together at swissQprint’s UK headquarters this September to highlight how value-added product offerings can make a real difference to large format printing.

Building on the success of last year’s Sustainability Showcase, guests will hear from industry professionals with demonstrations and practical advice on what is required to design, produce and sell value-added solutions to their customers.

The versatility and flexibility of swissQprint’s printers will be on display at the open days. Among them, the award-winning Kudu flatbed printer will demonstrate how neon colours, varnish, droptix 3D effects, and relief printing enhance products to add value.

Alongside the printers, the Surf3D scanner from Metis will show how capturing high-quality colour images and textures enables relief printing, including artwork reproduction, to become a reality. In addition, AVA will demonstrate its Scan editing software and Digital Print Preparation and Soft Proof solution, commonly used for the design and production of decorative and textile prints.

Zünd will be showcasing the advantages of digital cutting with its hardware and software solutions. The market-leading Swiss-built digital cutter will finish the printed materials showing how an effective print-and-cut workflow can optimise operations. In addition, the latest PrimeCenter software will demonstrate the advanced capabilities of streamlining workflow and reducing material waste.

Dean Ashworth, sales and marketing director at Zünd UK, said: “Through our highly versatile hardware and software solutions, we want to show the enormous potential for industry players to obtain value-added product offerings for their customers and elevate products to the next level.”
