Printwear & Promotion The Total Promotional Package
On February 13, Epson celebrated the opening its brand new Innovation Centre in Lutterworth, Leicestershire, by launching its first ever Textile Academy.
The Textile Academy is a platform to inspire young people to contribute to a better, more eco-friendly textile industry. Epson’s inaugural Textile Academy comprised of a special, one-day workshop day for textile design students at nearby Nottingham Trent University (NTU).
During this event, the NTU textile design students were given the opportunity to print their individual designs onto a range of substrates using Epson’s broad range of digital textile printing solutions spanning direct to garment, direct to film, and dye sublimation printers.
Katy Harvey, Textile Design student at NTU, said: “Today I learned about the different options for starting my own business or building my career through a company. It was also really great to see how my designs could work across such a wide range of items.”
