Belgium-based Hecht set to install an Acuity Ultra

Belgian-headquartered wide-format PSP Hecht will this month install the Fujifilm Acuity Ultra it ordered at Fespa Global.

The company - which also has operations in France and the Netherlands - was acquired by Koramic Visual Communication Group in 2017 and has been looking towards increasing production capacity since then. Rik Deman, CEO of Koramic Visual Communication Group, said: “We investigated and ran tests on a number of different machines to help us to do that. Ultimately, there were two decisive factors that led us to conclude that the Acuity Ultra was the machine for us - an unrivalled combination of speed and quality and a very fast white ink printing option. The latter point is particularly important to us as we see the high-end, backlit graphics market and the out-of-home advertising market as key growth areas.”
