Quality Print Services (QPS), a wide-format print specialist and the main UK distributor of Nazdar digital inkjet ink products, has installed a Roland RT-640 dye-sublimation transfer printer at Magic Textiles’ custom-built facilities in Leek, Staffordshire.
The Roland RT-640 printer was installed in January 2019 and will enable Magic Textiles to expand its services to include printed products made from man-made fabrics such as polyester.
Magic Textiles offers a full and bespoke textile printing service to a wide variety of customers ranging from major household brand names, including Rolls Royce, J Barbour & Sons, and Paul Smith, through to small independent designers.
‘Our new Roland printer has opened the door to some exciting expansion opportunities and enables us to offer printed polyester textiles alongside our existing range of cotton and cotton mix products,’ said Lee Casswell, owner of Magic Textiles.
‘It really was a case of dipping our toes in the printed man-made fabrics market. Since installation, we’ve also had enquiries from existing customers interested in flags and banners for outdoor use – something we were unable to offer until now.’
The new printer is running Nazdar NDT600 Series inks which are also supplied by QPS.
