Spandex Open House set to deliver practical advice on growing business 

Spandex will host an Open House at its premises in Bristol on 4-5 November. Following the company’s theme of ‘Learn, Discover and Benefit’, the event will comprise interactive learning sessions and practical expert advice to help attendees grow business. Spandex will also show ways to take advantage of the growing textile and soft signage market by maximising the potential of new and existing technology.

The highlight of the Open House will be two seminars delivered by technical company Color Concepts. Both seminars are designed to help visitors deepen their knowledge of digital print and the opportunities it represents. The Creating Printer Workflows seminar will offer practical advice on how to reduce costs in the print department. It will also demonstrate how to optimise communication with customers by using proof prints and how to use PDF and colour effectively. Focusing on the world of media and printer profiling, the Creating Print Profiles seminar will show visitors how to achieve the best colour results from any media and how to maintain this quality in the long term. 

“Feedback following recent Open House events clearly shows that customers value the number of extensive learning opportunities, live product demonstrations and expert presentations – all under one roof,” said Phil McMullin, Spandex UK country manager. 

Other workshop and demonstrations will cover subjects focused on vehicle wrapping, textile marking, sign systems, fixings and fastenings, Gerber Edge media applications as well as wall wraps.  There will also be a seminar on ‘Photographic and Fine Art Reproduction’ and the ‘The Latest Digital Materials’.

Throughout the day, visitors will also be able to experience live product demonstrations of an extensive range of wide-format inkjet printing solutions from leading industry manufacturers. Taking centre stage will be Spandex’s new Gerber CAT UV flatbed inkjet printer which was previewed for the first time at Fespa 2010. Also on display will be Epson’s new GS6000 (64in) printer.
