Vivid to showcase award-winning laminators at SDUK 2016

Vivid will showcase their 2 award-winning laminators at SDUK 2016

At Sign & Digital UK, Vivid Laminating Technologies will feature not one but two products that have recently won awards in America.

In September of last year, Vivid’s Matrix OPP Laminator won the Top Product award from Quick Printing magazine.

The Leicestershire-based manufacturer has continued to add functionality and innovative features to the Matrix. Lamination, foiling, metallic finishes, spot UV effects, security print features and their new lens film will all be demonstrated on Stand G42.

Vivid has announced its new Easymount Air Wide Format Laminator has also won a Readers' Choice Top Product Award from Wide-Format & Signage magazine.

“We’re very proud to win a second award for our laminating systems in the U.S.,” said export manager Bruce Cozens. “We were presented Top Product for our Matrix OPP Laminating Systems. For the Easymount Air to now also be recognised as a Top Product is a great achievement. Two awards in just six months is incredible.”

A revolution in the wide format lamination & mounting market, the Easymount Air's patented technology uses one of the most advanced concepts ever seen in a wide format laminator.

The laminating rollers are controlled by pneumatic air pressure, allowing wide format printers and sign makers to mount and laminate with remarkable precision. Pneumatic air allows the rollers to adjust to the exact thickness and pressure required, giving faster production times.

“We’ve smashed the competition because of the ground-breaking technology within the Easymount Air,” added Mr Cozens “The top roller 'floats' down, which means that foam and fluted boards aren’t crushed. When the rollers achieve the correct substrate thickness, they can be locked in place to keep the required gap, making board feeding faster and more accurate”.

Vivid will be showcasing both the Easymount Air and Matrix Laminating Systems on Stand G42 at Sign & Digital UK.
