Printing professionals can drive profitable growth with the extensive portfolio of technologies Electronics For Imaging (EFI) is presenting at the 2016 SGIA Expo, including several new offerings shown for the first time in North America.
The company’s exhibit at the Sept. 14-16 trade show reflects how EFI helps customers harness new capabilities and opportunities, and drive efficiency with the industry’s broadest portfolio of LED, UV and aqueous digital textile inkjet printers; digital front ends (DFEs); and production workflow software for digital print signage, display graphics and industrial textile production.
The company’s newest products reflect the integrated advantage EFI customers gain, and at SGIA Expo that includes:
• The 1.8-meter EFI Reggiani ReNOIR ONE-600, a new, green printing solution on display in booth 4617 — the SGIA Expo Garment Zone — for superior-quality industrial apparel and décor applications.
• EFI eCommerce for Soft Signage, a bundled offering on display at booth 1515 that features leading-edge web-to-print, Fiery DFE and EFI VUTEk FabriVU printers.
• The newest version 6.3 of EFI’s Fiery and Fiery proServer DFE technologies for inkjet graphics production.
• The 2-meter EFI VUTEk GS2000LX Pro with UltraDrop Technology hybrid LED printer, including the world premiere of new, LED clear ink, a high-end print enhancement for customers producing premium-quality graphics.
• The fast, 5.2-meter EFI Quantum LXr 5, a roll-to-roll LED printer that is a more cost-effective alternative to latex inkjet.
• The 1.65m EFI H1625-SD printer with EFI SuperDraw UV Inks for specialty and custom thermoforming applications.
• The 3.4-meter EFI VUTEk FabriVU 340 digital fabric printer for soft signage.
• EFI Armor Erase UV, a new, award-winning protective inkjet graphics clear coat for anti-graffiti protection and dry erase applications.
Driving customer success in the analog-to-digital transformation
EFI products at SGIA address requirements in the high-speed and demanding point-of-purchase signage markets, as well as for packaging and corrugated, where the journey from analog to digital printing is well underway. The 3.2 meter VUTEk HS125 Pro hybrid roll/flatbed inkjet high-speed press, and the fast, energy-efficient VUTEk LX3 Pro hybrid printer on display are both ideal for high-volume, high-quality signage and graphics as well as for lower-volume packaging production and prototyping.
In addition, authorized distributor Nazdar SourceOne is featuring the 2-meter EFI VUTEk H2000 Pro hybrid UV printer, which features 7-picoliter UltraDrop Technology.
Textile applications — both soft signage and industrial apparel and décor printing — have become an especially promising opportunity for EFI’s customers. According to InfoTrends, the total textile market is estimated at $165 billion per year. Smithers Pira reports that the market for digitally printed textiles is valued at $1.3 billion.
Décor and apparel applications produced on the new EFI Reggiani ReNOIR ONE-600 printer at the show include an “All-In Green” printing process that provides superior definition, color intensity, and dry and wet rub-fastness.
“This year’s SGIA Expo comes at a critical juncture for the industry, when sign and display graphics professionals are redefining the markets and applications that create profitable growth for printing companies now and into the future,” said Scott Schinlever, senior vice president and general manager, EFI Inkjet. “Our customers continue to discover new ways to drive higher-margin, higher-productivity work. The portfolio of products EFI is offering at SGIA will spur ideas for even more new opportunities using a truly advanced and complete offering of high-end production inkjet graphics printers, DFE technology and workflow software that is unmatched in the industry.”
