The purchase comes shortly after the firm moved into a larger premises, which, incidentally, is where the Agfa will be positioned. The Anapurna RTR3200i LED will now run alongside an existing Anapurna M2500i six-colour hybrid printer, which Projects and Print bought back in 2014.
Richard Barrett, managing director of Projects and Print, comments: “In the last three years our business has grown by around 50 percent and there was a real need to increase space.
“The move to the new premises was a big step but in the short time we have been here we can see that we are much more productive without the need to employ more staff. And now, with the new Anapurna print output has also significantly increased.”
The Anapurna RTR3200i LED can produce applications such as billboards, and indoor and outdoor banners at speeds of up to 127sq m/h. The machine, also available as a four-colour plus white model, has a UV LED map that allows for printing onto a wide media mix, while users also have the option for dual-roll printing to further boost productivity.
Projects and Print has a customer list that features high profile names such as Network Rail, Samsung, Costa Coffee, and the De Vere Hotel Group. And in order to satisfy these types of clients, Barrett says it is vital to invest.
Meeting the needs of our clients is our major priority which has lead to us growing organically, and each year we have made a significant investment back into our business”
Barrett continues: “Meeting the needs of our clients is our major priority which has lead to us growing organically, and each year we have made a significant investment back into our business. We have invested heavily in our business and our clients know they can trust and rely on us as we can with Agfa.”
Chris Parker, operations director, also comments: “The Anapurna M2500 has been totally reliable producing quality results on rigid or flexible material. The new 3.2m RTR Anapurna has only just been installed but is already making a significant impact by increasing output.
“Its LED lights have a much longer working life and by managing every job we print, Asanti reduces costly mistakes before printing. Agfa has also made colour calibrations to our own requirements so we can print on either machine and achieve the same results.”
