UV Curable Inks Added To Our Range
Following on from the successful launch of Triangle's range of solvent and eco-solvent inks, we have added their UV curable inks for a variety of UV wide format printers to our range as well. Just like the solvent inks, the UV ink sets are colour matched to OEM supplied ink sets so customers are able to use their current colour profiles without seeing any differences to the images produced. These inks are 100% solids, ultraviolet light resistant pigmented ink that is applied to various media using a UV inkjet printer (see below for models). Three years investment in research and development by IDI on their UV curable line of products has proven that it is convincingly better than other brands previously used in the industry.
Printer Suitability: Vutek PressVu 200/600 series, Durst Rho 160, 350R, 600, 600pictor series, HP FB6100 (NUR Tempo Q, Tempo II) and NUR Expedio Printers. Triangle UV Inks
Save up to 50% on your wide format running costs!
The two costs you have little control over are your ink costs and your printer maintenance costs. Printer manufacturers are quick to imply that using any third party ink will render your maintenance contract invalid and possibly damage your printer. This is a powerful and convincing argument because, in most businesses, if the printer breaks down the business grinds to a costly and stressful halt. Companies selling printers make handsome ongoing profits on the sale of inks and service contracts and so will obviously suggest that changing anything leads to potential disaster. It doesn't have to be like this! By speaking to the right people and carefully choosing the correct products you can substantially cut your costs without compromising on print quality or leaving yourself open to expensive breakdowns. As you continue reading this please suspend the advice that, "Anything that sounds too good to be true probably is." You need to remember that OEM inks are expensive and so are standard service contracts. Triangle Inks Range
Pyramid's Environmental Choices Range
We are always looking for products that will compliment our existing range and will allow our customers to be able to offer new options to their customers. This is why we have reached an agreement with Pyramid Display Materials in Manchester to allow us to offer their Environmental Choices range of materials. They have tried to keep it as simple as possible and actually provide you with choices to help you decide what products you would like to use. Within this range they have compiled a wide group of products that are used every day in POS, retail and signage sectors. The Environmental Choices range seeks to share information on the detail of a product’s make up, what is inside it, what applications it should be considered for use with, can it be reprocessed, what alternatives are available. Each product is grouped within a family of others made from the same base compounds also to show the thickness and effects that can be achieved. They have also had printed a common image on each. You could say ‘Why haven’t you shown different images?’ Their thinking here is to show you the difference in the same image say printed on paper, board, PVC or fluted.
