Advanced Middle East graphic value-chain provider using new LED inkjet roll-to-roll device to deliver "unprecedented" high-end imaging
EFI™ announced that NDigitec, one of the Middle East's fastest-growing creative production companies, purchased an EFI VUTEk® GS5500lxrroll-to-roll LED inkjet printer. According to NDigitec executives, quality, reliability and "green" LED technology were the primary reasons for selecting this printer.
Based in Dubai, UAE, NDigitec is a leading provider in the Middle East for prepress, premedia, fabrication, digital printing and web-to-print solutions through its portal Dubaiprint.com. NDigitec DigiPrint, the company's digital printing competency, provides small to large-format printing services, including indoor and outdoor banners, roll-up banners, point-of-purchase displays, exhibition displays, sample table services, 3D printing and more.
The acquisition speaks to the business and service focus at NDigitec, a company that has the business slogan "A promise is a promise" to suggest promising and delivering of solutions and services to its customers under all circumstances. "We think of our reproduction of graphics as a work of art. We combine traditional know-how with modern methods to create precise detail within our customers' stipulated timeframe," explained NDigitec CEO Vatche Kavlakian.
With resolutions up to 1,000 dpi, the eight-colour VUTEk printer provides NDigitec with the precision and detail it requires in every print. "We chose the machine because it has unprecedented dot quality that is unseen in the marketplace," said Kavlakian.
NDigitec also operates a 2.5-metre hybrid UV inkjet printer and sought a product that would help the company continue to meet growing demand for premium-quality graphics. The new, 5-metre VUTEk printer, which gives the company greater versatility in high-volume, roll-to-roll production, will be used to produce high-quality prints for all indoor and outdoor large-format projects and Dubaiprint.com online orders.
"This printer offers a blend of unique technology and supports our effort to go green, and the reliable EFI brand name helped strengthen our decision," said Mohamed Shawer, General Manager of NDigitec DigiPrint. EFI's innovative LED "cool curing" technology consumes significantly less energy than other UV printers, saving money as it reduces environmental impact.
According to Shawer, experience with the EFI Fiery® digital front end for inkjet was another reason for choosing the EFI system. "We also use EFI's colour management and RIP software as part of our prepress and digital printing value-added processes," he said.
