Columns, News, Views, Reviews
any print businesses are looking for new revenue streams as they continue to adjust to a changing and often challenging market climate. This month's issue of Australia’s biggest and best read print industry
magazine kicks off with a look at textile printing, and the emerging opportunities it is presenting. Formerly the domain of screen print, the new generation of digital systems are providing commercial and franchise printers with entry into a huge market. We look at how you print textiles, and who supplies the kit. We have an in-depth report on innovative manufacturer Kornit, and we report on two local print businesses that switched to digital textile printing.
The latest Smithers Pira report predicts that digital printing will continue to grow. This issue of Print21 reports on the progress of several print businesses installing toner and B2 sheetfed inkjet We also have an interview with the man who heads up the HP Indigo business to gain his latest insights into the market. The digital theme continues with our feature on embellishing, now available at the touch of a button thanks to digital technology. We look at the technology, and the print businesses that are installing it.
Print21 is constantly out and about, I was in Brussels recently for the Labelexpo trade show, the report is in this issue, and again digital is presenting opportunities for print business, both those already in labels and those considering entry.
Wide format printing has been on a strong growth mode for the past two decades, however the sudden appearance of lower cost digital signage may be a threat. We interview the CEO of the big outdoor media company oOh! to get his thoughts.
This is the final Print21 of the year, it is a pleasure to work on your behalf, and from all of us here on the team we wish you a Happy Christmas and a great new year.
