combustible panels for signage, shopfitting and building cladding. Newcomer to Visual Impact this
year, Zoomtec, will introduce its Café Signs displays.
Textiles and garment printing are always a feature of Visual Impact, and there will be plenty to see in Sydney 2023. Impression Technology specialises in DTG and DTF . Flatbed UV print systems will produce applications including texture and braille print.
Visitors interested in this area will also be able to print their own t-shirt at the Velflex ‘One Stop Transfer Shop’ using UltraColour ready-to- press transfers and Hotronix Heat Presses.
To get the best out of any system, you have to get the back-end right, and there will be plenty of software, MIS and CRM solutions on show.
After a successful PacPrint, Australia’s largest trade printer CMYKhub will show its Design Desk and online Subscription, Graphic Design & Prepress Platform.
Visual Impact will be complemented by a full programme of seminars, workshops and panel discussions running through
each day, providing important information, ideas and inspiration that will help businesses achieve the show’s mantra – ‘Envision Your Success’.
