SAS on the hunt for growth with Fujifilm

Special Art Services (SAS) Graphics has hailed the impact that its Acuity Select X28 flatbed printer has had on operations, saying that the Fujifilm machine has been able to boost productivity and business opportunity.

Installed in October, the device, a part of the Acuity Select 20 family of wide-format printers, has a print area of over 2.5 x 3.05m and the ability to print at qualities of 1200 dpi or greater graphics on rigid, flexible and roll media.

Steve White, managing director, SAS Graphics, has nothing but good things to say about the Fujifilm machine, paying particular tribute to the number of colours available in the Acuity Select X28.

“The new Acuity Select X28 has been a hugely welcome addition to our portfolio; prior to the investment, we were close to full production capacity,” White says.

He continues: “However, since the installation, we have found that this machine can cost-effectively print such high quality at such fast speeds, that our turnaround times have been dramatically reduced, opening up so many new possibilities for the business.

I see big possibilities for this machine and our business over the coming months and I'm very pleased with our partnership in Fujifilm

“The eight-channel Acuity Select X28 has given us the ability to add light cyan and light magenta as well as white and a varnish if required. 

“The result is not only amazingly high quality print, but produced at a speed and consistency that is unparalleled in our experience.

“In addition to growing our client base in our core markets, we are now also providing wide format trade printing services to a number of other printers, who are outsourcing their wide format printing jobs to us. 

“As a result, I see big possibilities for this machine and our business over the coming months and I'm very pleased with our partnership in Fujifilm.”
