Our presence at FESPA Middle East will highlight our products’ transformative power, enabling businesses to raise printing standards and explore new opportunities across business sectors.
“Epson has actively participated in previous FESPA events around the world, leveraging these platforms to highlight our latest innovations. At the FESPA Global Print Expo 2022, we made a remarkable impact with live printing demonstrations. Along with our partners, we highlighted the diverse applications and impressive outcomes achievable through our range of professional inkjet printers and other key products. Our stand was strategically designed to present various printing possibilities across different areas. In the Promotional segment, we exhibited desktop dye sublimation printers alongside the SC-F2100 DTG printer, demonstrating how small businesses can produce personalised merchandise such as mugs, phone covers, and t-shirts. Our latest Direct-to-Garment printer, the SureColor SC-F3000, offers a complete DTG package for high-volume fabric printing. The expo also featured Epson's advanced printers such as the Direct-to-Fabric digital textile printer Monna Lisa ML-8000 and the dye sublimation printers SC-F9400H and SC-F10000H, which offer applications in fashion, home textiles, and soft signage. Our participation extended to the signage area with printers like the SureColor SC-R5000L, which enables easy printing on various materials. Additionally, we unveiled the SureColor SC-V7000, Epson's first UV flatbed printer, which is ideal for diverse applications on rigid substrates. FESPA served as a dynamic platform for Epson and its partners to demonstrate a wide array of printing applications, demonstrating how businesses can expand into new markets and leverage our innovative technologies to maximise revenue potential.
“Epson ME will spotlight the SC-R5010L, our inaugural resin ink large format printer. This versatile machine can print on various materials including vinyl, banners, textiles, wallpapers, and films, offering unmatched printing possibilities. We will also introduce the F2200, a comprehensive solution for Direct-to-Garment and Direct-to-Film printing. Businesses seeking accuracy, speed, and intricate design execution across garments will find the F2200 indispensable. Additionally, we will present the SC-F6400H, a 44-inch six-colour dye sublimation printer that targets textile producers, promotional goods businesses, and photographic studios with its versatility and vibrant output.
“In the digital age, the printing industry is experiencing transformative growth, driven by the innovative technologies being highlighted at events like FESPA 2024.
Key areas shaping this evolution include:
