Background

Wide format printing has for many years been dominated by companies dedicated to the production of machines, sold in the main to printers specialising in the traditional outdoor advertising market.

However over time manufacturers of these presses have formed collaborations with majors in the world of graphic printing supplies such as Fujifilm.  These factors along with printers wanting to diversify and offer their clients 'turn key' printing solutions has resulted in investment in research and development, leading to technically advanced wide format printing machines coming onto the market, with the latest being described as super-wide format.

UV Factor

development UV inks.  The ability to print using UV-cured inks on wide-format devices capable of handling rigid substrates, combining the benefits of UV materials with the flexibility and image quality of digital print. One of the companies that played a key role in bringing these diverse technologies together was Fuji Sericol.

Because of these advances the UV inkjet business has continued to boom with Inca introducing larger and faster machines, available in the UK exclusively through Fuji Sericol, bringing ever more productivity and flexibility to POS printers, and in a way, bringing UV screen print into the 21st century.

The Future

UV inkjet business has continued to boom. Inca has introduced larger and faster machines, available in the UK exclusively through Fuji Sericol, bringing ever more productivity and flexibility to POS printers, and in a way, bringing UV screen print into the 21st century.

Through strategic acquisitions in the areas of inkjet inks, dyes, pigments and industrial print-heads, Fujifilm has built a capability in the inkjet technology market that is second to none. We’re combining these technologies to create the industrial inkjet printing systems of the future.
