Ball & Doggett, with branches in all six states of Australia, is an essential consumable supplier to many signage and print companies but is making serious inroads into hardware supplies as a leading HP and Roland DG reseller but a look into the full array of equipment solutions at Visual Impact, reveals a depth of hardware and software solutions that complements the extensive consumable products perfectly.
Equipment is an area that Ball&Doggett is intent on expanding into, with the company recently recruiting well-known wide format identity Tatjana Ferguson as Brand Manager - Sign and Display.
The equipment range, apart from the flagship HP and Roland DG printers, includes: Sign Easy and Sign Master Laminators, Sawgrass dye-sublimation printers, HiX Graphics, Siser and Stahls Hotronix heat presses and a soon-to-be-announced expansion of the fast-growing DTF (direct-to-film) sector, currently represented by the Roland DG VersaStudio BN-20DW.
