Mimaki has long been synonymous with digital textile printing. It was back in 1998 when the company’s first digital textile printer – the Mimaki TX-1600S – was launched. Since then Mimaki has continued to innovate, enhancing its portfolio and capabilities even further in the digital textile printing industry. In fact, Mimaki has launched an abundance of ground-breaking new products and solutions, such as the JV5 in 2006 or the TS5, the first industrial printer that reached 30-40 linear meters/hour, in 2009, just to name a few. And now Mimaki is doing it again! Following the acquisition of Italian company La Meccanica, Mimaki launched the Tiger series, high-volume digital textile printing systems. The latest model, the Mimaki Tiger-1800B MkII, is yet again revolutionising the textile printing market.

Innovation and environmental sustainability in digital textile printing will be central to Aleph’s showcase at ITMA 2019. A leading Italian manufacturer of sublimation and direct-to-fabric inkjet printers for the textile and visual communication industries, headquartered in the textile district of Como, Aleph will unveil a range of brand-new scanning printing systems aimed at enhancing and integrating its flagship series, LAFORTE. Designed as a fashion boutique, the company’s booth (Hall H3, Stand B131) will host the latest cutting-edge technologies developed by Aleph and a wealth of textile applications, including textiles printed with modern and trendy patterns and designs, aiming to demonstrate how advanced digital printing technologies are transforming the high-end fashion, fast fashion, sportswear and athleisure, home textile industries.

aleph's success in inkjet is the result of symbiotic interaction with its customers. And the new generation of LAFORTE industrial printers is already an affordable innovation icon
Como is universally recognised as the centre of innovation for silk, the place of origin of what we call "digital textile", to the point of attracting the investments of the most important multinational inkjet brands. Not everyone knows that the silk tradition of the city of Como has its roots in the Middle Ages, that the cultivation of the silkworm in Como dates back to the Dukedom of Milan in 1300, and was enhanced by Ludovico Sforza in 1400. Since then, the textile industry has been a tradition handed down from father to son, which has given impetus to hundreds of family businesses and encouraged the activity of brilliant inventors and shrewd entrepreneurs.
