Milan, Italy – Last March in Milan, Italy, Arjowiggins Day was held to introduce the world to Arjowiggins' exclusive new innovations, including such value-added products as recycled FSC certified papers. Roland, as technical partner in the event, was on hand with its own innovation, the VersaUV LEC-300, the world’s first UV inkjet printer/cutter.
The day brought together Arjowiggins' unique products, aimed at high-end and refined applications, and an audience of top creative industry professionals, designers and printers from all over Italy. The event allowed participants to evaluate not only the whole range of papers, from glossy to silk-touch effect, but also the print output, thanks to the customizations made possible using the Roland VersaUV LEC-300. Graphics with relief effects on different textures and customized packaging projects were created using these high quality materials.
Visitors were able to test the materials themselves and see the results, which proved to be a very effective introduction, offering participants a closer look at the materials and technology involved.
Progetto Immagine, who owns a VersaUV LEC-300, assisted in the demonstrations with Roland and Arjowiggins, creating samples that were given to all the participants during the event as well as producing examples of various applications that were displayed in the showroom.
Combined with the LEC-300, Arjowiggins' papers are ideal for those who develop innovative and creative communications ideas. Attendees were impressed by the versatility of the applications as well as the color output and tactile effects. The environment at the event was refined and welcoming. How could it be otherwise, in the fashion capital of the world?
