Mr Spicer said: “It will take Out Of Home advertising to another level with the short lead times for print. The Durst 512R is capable of printing 5m wide at 360 metres in two hours with unbelievable print quality. It does away with banding in wide format printing.
“Its versatility allows us to print on vinyl, mesh, SAV (self-adhesive vinyl), polyethylene and fabric. It has increased our capacity to attract new clients.”
After testing the new printer at its Sydney location in recent months, Cactus Imaging is now using it to produce work for a range of industries – from large format billboards for OOH to retail, construction, high resolution wallpaper and interior design, and fashion exhibitions.
Mr Spicer said: “The Durst is so technically advanced that we’ve been able to combine the ultra-flexible inks with the very latest European printable textiles to produce stunning fabric prints. Our wide range encompasses outdoor billboards and the most delicate of backlit high fashion-printed images.
He added: “Cactus Imaging continues to keep up to date with and research the world’s best technology to support our clients.”
