“Having firmly established itself as the biggest digital printer manufacturer in India, Colorjet is now all set to repeat its success story in Bangladesh and countries of Asia, Africa and Europe,” a company press release said.
“The consumers of Bangladesh share a common passion for colourful textiles with consumers of India and Colorjet brings to the table its experience and expertise, which includes a deep understanding of fashion sense in the sub-continent,” the release added.
Fully realising that investment in digital printing requires a lot of support and hand holding in the initial stages, Colorjet has tied up with Universal Textile Machinery & Spares Ltd in Bangladesh to fully meet the need for making spares and consumables available to customers in the South Asian country.
The Vastrajet is a workhorse with its robust Konica-Minolta printheads, and for the production rate it delivers, it probably has the lowest carbon footprint. The printer is ideally suitable for home furnishing producers with a working width of up to 320 cm.
The direct-to-textile printer is also available in a hybrid version or two-ink systems. Though reactive dye inks are the most popular choice in the sub-continent, pigment inks are preferred by some. Colorjet offers the Vastrajet in the open system with both ink systems and also with direct disperse.
“Before the end of 2019, Colorjet hopes to install at least five printers in Bangladesh, two of which are already in advanced stages of negotiations,” Jitender Pal Singh, textile head at Colorjet India said.
As per the latest IDC 2018 Q1 Super Wide Format report, Colorjet maintains its No. 1 position in India while assiduously pursuing excellence in digital printing since 2004. To-date, the company has installed and implemented over 4,000 of its printing solutions and products across 315 cities. (RKS)
