Image Reports partners with Northprint 2011 to present first wide-format applications showcase
Image Reports has partnered with Northprint 2011 to deliver a dedicated Wide-Format Applications Showcase. Developed to highlight the myriad and diverse opportunities now presented by wide-format inkjet print technology, visitors to the show in May will be able to see a breadth of applications.
Trevor Crawford, director of the IIR Print Group, said: “The current climate is providing a massive opportunity for printers to explore new business ideas with a world of options awaiting them in the wide-format sector. Exhibitors in this area will concentrate on presenting recently finished product examples and providing visitors with creative suggestions on how to maximise the investment in this technology.
“With its outstanding knowledge and understanding of this market, Image Reports is the ideal partner to promote the area. We’re confident that the Wide-Format Applications Showcase will add to the diversity of Northprint 2011 and attract a range of wide-format and commercial printers.”
Wide-format digital print equipment supplier Roland DG has already confirmed its presence at Northprint and will also exhibit in the Wide-Format Applications Showcase area. Brett Newman, technical director at Roland DG UK, said: “Commercial printers are increasingly investing in wide-format technology so the event will provide an excellent stage to explain our offerings to them. This is the first time we’ll be exhibiting at Northprint so we’re delighted that there will be a dedicated wide-format area as it recognises the buoyant nature of the sector and highlights its growing importance. Visitors to our stand will be able to find out about our latest wide -ormat machines designed to produce profitable applications for a vast range of business opportunities.”
Chris Cooke, Publisher of Image Reports, added: “Image Reports is very happy to be working with IIR and the wide-format exhibitors at Northprint to help create a showcase of the best in applications from the wide-format digital print sector.
