The company has invested in its own Acuity LED 1600 II to provide in-house demonstrations
Belfast-based print and signage consumables supplier, Alphagraphics, has recently celebrated its 30th anniversary by introducing the Acuity UV LED printer range to the Irish market.
Originally conceived as a litho ink distributor, Alphagraphics has steadily expanded its portfolio over the subsequent three decades and – keen to tap into the hardware needs of its ever growing wide-format consumables market – the company has invested in its own Acuity LED 1600 II to provide in-house demonstrations.
Having developed strong relationships with customers within a variety of industries, Alphgraphics saw the Acuity LED 1600 II as a perfect fit for its current customer base. ‘This is an exciting time for us,’ said managing director, Wesley Moody. ‘We have been marketing Fujifilm’s pre-press hardware for a long time, so in today’s market moving into the wide-format arena is a natural progression for us and has created a lot of interest amongst our customers.’
The ability to add value to print through applying white ink and clear varnish simultaneously with the 6-colour base is something Alphagraphics feels will strongly appeal to its customers. Sales manager Patrick Sherry said, ‘The versatility it can offer from high-end prototypes in the carton printing sector to innovative designs on rigid display materials is something that will appeal to our diverse client base.’
