Ilford will be presenting its BioMedia range of recyclable and biodegradable substrates at Sign & Digital. This marks the first public demonstration of the universal layer BioMedia range in the UK.
In addition to raising awareness of the environmental benefits of BioMedia at Sign & Digital, Ilford has also taken the opportunity to demonstrate the universal compatibility of the range, which produces 'excellent results' with a wide range of commercial printing equipment including Aqueous, Eco-solvent, Solvent and Latex printers.
Tetenal (Stand F62), Ilford BioMedia's distribution partner for the UK, will print on the substrate range using the 1300mm Mutoh Valuejet 1204 eco-solvent wide-format printer. The printer was added to the Tetenal portfolio earlier this month and is suitable for the production of posters, banners and signage, all of which can be made using the BioMedia product range.
At Epson (Stand E70), the BioMedia Universal Display Film will be demonstrated using the Sure-Color S30600 and 1180 aqueous printers. BioMedia is a particularly good match for the recently launched Sure-Color S30600, which is an ENERGY STAR-qualified printer offering power efficiency to users.
“At Epson we understand that whilst sustainable printing is of great importance, the solutions offered to the market must make business sense. This is why we have developed the SC-S30600, a power-efficient printer with a low cost of ownership. The BioMedia range is a great match for the printer, as it enables print firms, signmakers, digital copy shops and repro centres to reduce their environmental impact,” comments Richard Barrow, Senior Product Manager at Epson Europe.
