Technology-driven change for Hollanders kit

Textile print specialist Hollanders Printing Systems has unveiled a change in policy for users of its popular ColorBooster machines in an effort to provide customers with the best technology possible

The firm will no longer supply standard service contracts on its original ColorBooster 230 machines, but instead offer existing customers ad hoc maintenance options.

In addition, Hollanders will place an emphasis on an upgrade path to either the 2.5m ColorBooster 250 or the 3.2m ColorBooster XL platform. 

Jacco Aartsen Tuijn, chief executive officer of Hollanders, explains: “Technology has moved on since the introduction of the ColorBooster 230, with printheads and inks becoming increasingly sophisticated, and the design and construction of printers being tailored to generate consistent, exacting results.

Ten years is a long time in the digital printing industry and our original machines have certainly proved their worth in terms of production capabilities and output quality


“Ten years is a long time in the digital printing industry and our original machines have certainly proved their worth in terms of production capabilities and output quality. 

“But, in order to increase the value proposition for our customers, we are now offering them an attractive upgrade path to the new ColorBooster 250 which incorporates state-of-the-art components and engineering techniques.”

As well as the 2.5m upgrade option on the 2.3m printer, the ColorBooster 250 Carpet Edition and the 3.2m ColorBooster XL printer also offer additional production capabilities.

The ColorBooster DS-320s double-sided system, which features two print engines and an inline fixation unit, is also on offer.
