Granthams becomes UK reseller for Elements
Preston-based Granthams is the first UK company to sign up as a reseller for IGS UK's Elements series of wide-format printing systems. The company had been looking to add more environmentally-friendly options to its portfolio and the Atom 24 and Atom 44 fit the bill.?
Kirsty Reader, general manager of Granthams, said: "Our growing client list comprises large and small businesses that want to produce their durable display print in-house. Until now this hasn't been practical because of the odours and hazardous chemicals inherent in most solvent-based printing systems.

"The Elements Atom 24 and Atom 44 printers, combined with H2O inks, matched Krypton Eco-Media and specially configured Chromium Rip, result in a neat, clean and green system which produces high quality output onto a range of materials, including semi-rigids and, even, aluminium composites. This turnkey solution also incorporates full support for users, plus minimal maintenance. We believe it is certain to appeal to first-time printer purchasers as well as those who want to incorporate eco-friendly options into their existing range of services."
With size options of 610 mm (24 inches) and 1117.6 mm (44 inches), the Elements Atom duo is based on industry-proven Epson Stylus Pro printers, modified to facilitate the use of Elements H2O's proprietary outdoor durable heat-cured water-based resin inks. Epson's MicroPiezo TFP (Thin Film Piezo) technology ensures that precise dot placement is matched with high performance criteria and excellent printhead durability.

Managing director of IGS UK, Nick Wintle, added: "Although we've only recently launched our Elements family of products, the interest has been exceptionally high from resellers eager to adopt a water-based green wide-format print solution. Granthams was first past the post and we're pleased to be working with such a high profile, well established specialist."
