Championship Billiards has installed the DuPont Artistri digital printing for textiles system at its Lincolnwood, IL, manufacturing site. The company, which prides itself in supplying the billiard industry with the finest billiard fabrics and component parts, has added new capabilities to create and print customized billiard table covers and rails, specialty wool fabrics and casino gaming table covers.
“The Artistri system has added exciting new aesthetic possibilities for customized billiard table covers and rails, casino gaming tables and other applications where wool and wool blend fabrics are used,” said Fred Cohen, president of Championship Billiards. “Our focus in adding DuPont Artistri to our product line was to delight our customers by allowing them to decorate their tables with logos and photographs where their design ideas are limited only by their imagination.
“The DuPont Artistri system made it possible for Championship Billiards to introduce our ChamPrints line of customized billiard cloth designs,” Mr. Cohen added. “We offer stock panoramic images as well as the reproduction of the customers’ artwork for the billiard table bed and rails. Our products have been featured on programs like ABC’s “Extreme Makeover: Home Edition” and we have created tops for celebrity homes, sports bar venues and important corporate advertising campaigns. Our customers love the fact that they can deliver their brand message in an innovative way or customize their family’s personal pool table with an image that is important to them.”
“DuPont Artistri is a result of DuPont’s expertise in color science, digital ink development and the company's more than 70 year history of innovation in the synthetic fibers industry,” said Kathleen Hall, global business director, DuPont Ink Jet. “DuPont has the unique capability to understand what it takes to create beautiful printing on fabric, enabling Championship Billiards to exceed the design needs of their customers and create a whole new standard of quality for these uses.”
DuPont Artistri’s fully integrated system is based on the DuPont Artistri 2020 printer, DuPont Artistri ink and DuPont Artistri GA software, all supported by its technical service organization.
