First products from new Roland DG media collaboration introduced

An introductory range of printable floor and wall materials born out of a new media collaboration between Roland DG and Gardner Graphic Supplies Europe (GGSEU) has been launched. An extended portfolio of Roland DG certified media will come on stream over the coming months.

“We have been offering Roland branded media for many years and it has been a highly successful programme, but now we are ready to take this to the next level,” said Paul Willems, head of business development and product management for Roland DG. GGSEU has been enlisted to manage and further develop Roland DG’s media programme in EMEA. The UK firm, having undertaken substantial investment in the last two years to increase its manufacturing capabilities, has more than 35 years’ experience within product R&D and media distribution within the wide-format sector. Matt Littler, EMEA sales director, GGSEU, said: “We are exceptionally excited to be working with Roland DG and to see the media range evolve. Our goal is to support Roland dealers in further strengthening their routes to market with media perfectly suited to their needs”. Of the initial products from the new partnership, GGSEU MD Will Duggins added: “With so many printers turning their hand to creating safe spaces and conveying important social distancing guidelines it was clear that was where we had to start. It's all about supporting Roland DG’s printers and dealers in getting back to business with the right media and the right solutions”.
