Signs Express (Central Lancashire) has expanded its wide-format printing capabilities with the installation of a new HP Designjet 60” L25500 Latex printer. The HP Designjet L25500, which uses HP Latex Inks, is recognised as one of the most versatile and eco-friendly solutions for wide-format signage and graphics.
Latex inks are water-based inks that combine the best characteristics of low and eco-solvent inks (lower cost, outdoor durability) with the benefits of water-based inks (high quality, odourless prints, reduced environmental impact).
HP latex inks produce odourless prints that are ideal for sensitive indoor areas like hospitals, schools and restaurants. They emit virtually no VOCs, no ozone and no hazardous air pollutants products. Latex inks are also incredibly versatile. HP latex inks meet the GREENGUARD Children & Schools standard for low emitting products.
According to Signs Express (Central Lancashire), the HP printer will provide its clients with ‘an environmentally friendly solution to their sign and graphics requirements as well as offering a combination of high quality and durability’.
The new printer is housed alongside a variety of state-of-the-art equipment including a fully equipped fabrication workshop, router workshop with three routers, a paint finishing facility and an in-house graphics workshop with full colour latex and direct to board UV printers.
