What has impressed me most about the Latex 3000 is the faster speed
and also the decrease in cost of the ink.
It’s fantastic for us for getting into longer and faster runs
for no compromise in quality.
The HP Latex 3000 is a model that will change the market.
The applications that we’ve seen on the machine have been wonderful.
We’ve seen almost all the materials and it gives you a wide range.
For example, you can use banners.
You can use canvas. It works very well on canvas.
SAVs auto-adhesive material works very well too.
The new HP Latex 3000 is impressive for speed
combined with very high image quality.
This machine is much more industrial, suitable for high productivity,
and it's extremely practical too, because a single operator can manage it.
About the printer Latex 3000, I think we will have much better productivity,
in a market that is more and more competitive.
Since introducing Latex we have been able to expand into interior design, with architects,
offering opportunities that we didn't have before,
because with UV printing certain types of products are not possible.
Latex technology is better for us simply because it works immediately.
So, we’re not waiting for drying. We’re not smelling the print.
It’s ready to go immediately and we can apply it.
It just makes for a better turnaround and the quality of the print.
HP Latex has been a massive advantage for us.
It’s mainly due to gassing out and the lack of solvents.
Also, our company is now registered with 18001 ISO.
Also, we’ve moved massively towards our environmental tasks within the company
to meet certain regulation limits.
Presently, where we are now, we wouldn’t have been
without the opportunity and the use of latex within the company.
Latex technology allows us to have a true eco-friendly model.
This is very important in our society nowadays.
There is less printing in solvent with solvent machines in our country.
We have completely crossed into a more ecological approach for our clients.
Currently we run solvent machines for the majority of our vehicle departments.
I see that latex is the way that we’re going to have to go for speed to market,
being able to print and utilizing the print straight away
and not having to dry the actual prints or de-gas the prints.
Also the fact that the inks on the Latex machine are all Green Guard
is going to be a big help for environmental government tenders
and also for school applications with the Green Guard certified inks.
Before latex, we used to run solvent machines.
Our productivity increased massively purely by just moving to latex.
It’s not even the amount of time to gas out,
it’s even the area that you need to be able to do that.
A lot of area like that we now use as now for storage,
we use it for racking to be able to gas the old vinyls out.
I’m very impressed with the new technologies that have been implemented on this machine.
In particular, the drying of the latex, the increase in speed,
It’s a very impressive machine.
So, it’s something that we’ll have to look at for an investment very soon in the future.
