Quadrant2Design managing director Alan Jenkins with the company’s new Seal 62 Pro D laminator
Dorset-based Quadrant2Design has invested in a new Seal 62 Pro D laminator from City and West End Solutions to support its ongoing growth in the exhibition marketplace.
The company designs and builds exhibition stands using the Prestige Events System, with panoramic graphics that extend from one end of the stand to another without any interruption. After a record year in 2013/14, the company’s sales figures to date are already up by another 70%.
‘The stands are built on a modular framework, which means it isn’t just ‘one big graphic’ – the panels are attached to the stand with an invisible gap from one frame to the next,’ explained managing director Alan Jenkins.
‘This is what gives the seamless-effect, and it’s also what makes precision graphics production essential. We print to paper using our HP Z6200s, and the paper is then sandwiched between a premium crystal laminate and rigid polyester stoplight. The installation of this extra Seal laminator will increase our capacity and allow us to continue to produce fantastic laminated graphics with an excellent finish – and the end result of very happy customers.’
The company purchased its first Seal 62 Pro D laminator from CWE in 2013, and the second was installed in August after the company’s move to new premises in Poole
Mr Jenkins added, ‘One of the most important parts of our quality control is that we pre-build every single stand we produce in our showroom to ensure that there are no problems or faults. We invite the client to come along to see it to ensure that they are happy with the final product.’
He concluded, ‘We plan to continue to expand and grow our place within the exhibition industry. We have recently bought and moved into our own new unit, which gives us the security to expand the company and grow in recognition. So far, the company has gone from strength to strength and we hope to continue to do so.’
