Icon Graphics has invested in Durst technology for the second time in just over 12 months, installing the UK’s first Rho 512R LED printer at its headquarters in Milton Keynes. The digital print, sign and direct-to-media specialist, which installed the UK’s first Rho P10 250HS Plus flatbed printer in December 2017, gains five-metre wide dedicated roll-to-roll printing capabilities.
Previously, five metre width work had to be either sub-contracted out, potentially entailing two day delays, or turned down. Now the work can be produced in-house in as little as two hours.
‘From my first-year experience, I had no hesitation in getting a Durst again,’ said Neville Tosar, director of Icon Graphics. ‘This is new LED technology from Durst and I think LED will be the future. This second machine also prints at an amazing quality and is incredibly quick and flexible. I come from an engineering background and soon realised how well these machines are built and, pound for pound, the machine represents really good value. Investing in technology is a way of making the best use of staff and making them more productive.’
