Textile transfer and sublimation specialist, Xpres, has unveiled plans to extend its product offering with the addition of hardware and supplies specifically for the sign industry.
Executive director Luke Clayton said, ‘Whilst our core market has been in digital textile transfers and sublimation gifts, our aim is to become a one-stop supplier serving the whole of the visual communications market. The sign industry is therefore a natural progression for Xpres and we are currently building a comprehensive range of hardware and supplies that will allow us to make our expansion plans a reality.’
The first phase of that expansion is already complete with an alliance with Mimaki distributors for the UK, Hybrid Services Ltd, which will see the company selling a comprehensive range of Mimaki printers and cutters.
John de la Roche, national sales manager for Hybrid said, ‘Xpres provides us with a highly professional partner and we’re very pleased to be part of the company’s growth into new markets.’
Clayton added, ‘We’re incredibly excited about this new partnership with Hybrid. Mimaki has an outstanding reputation for quality and innovation that we have always admired and we’re delighted to have introduced their machines to complement our existing range of technologies.
