Mutoh America

It’s only through proper training can commercial printers make sure they understand all the intricacies involved with the wrap process.

The first-ever Product of the Year Award Presentation was held yesterday evening, prior to the opening day of SGIA Expo.

At Graph Expo 16, coming Sept. 25-28 to Orlando's Orange County Convention Center-North, Print Media Centr (PMC) will feature a robust lineup of expert panel presentations and special events that will take place in The Printerverse (booth #701). The Printerverse is a highly interactive 2,500-square-foot show floor feature providing "Printspiration, Information and Fun," where attendees are invited to come and connect with the topics, trends, and people who are moving the print-driven industries forward.

Brian Phipps has been promoted to president of Mutoh America. He has worked for the company since 2004.

The SGIA Product of the Year competition showcases the best printers, technologies and consumables in specialty imaging.

The Streamline ESL HPQ low odor inks from Sun Chemical have been developed for the Roland Soljet Pro 2, Pro 3 and VersaCAMM printers.

Only one product out of the entire ISA show was named Best New Product and that went to Mutoh’s ValueJet 426UF UV-LED printer.

Mutoh America will be hosting five open house events at its learning facilities in Phoenix, Chicago, Atlanta, Boston and Los Angeles.

To support its growing product line, Mutoh America expanded and remodeled its Corporate Learning Center in Phoenix. The new facility houses a showroom, a classroom-style education suite for training sessions and an expanded warehouse. A Grand Opening event will take place on January 23.

The typical landscape for U.S. printing industry trade shows today is dotted with smaller booths, fewer attendees and less equipment on display. But that wasn't the case at the recent 2014 SGIA Expo held at the Las Vegas Convention Center October 22-24. SGIA set not one, but two, new records: largest attended SGIA Expo ever, with 25,500 registered attendees; and most exhibitors, with 541 exhibitors filling 223,000 square feet of floor space.
