Hybrid Services, the exclusive UK and Irish distributor of industry giant Mimaki, will have a host of new kit on show at the event in order to create as much interest as possible.
One such product that will be demonstrated is the new Mimaki SUV, with the device due to make its UK domestic debut at the show.
John de la Roche, Hybrid's national sales manager, comments: “It's a printer that really has to be seen to be fully appreciated, so we're looking forward to visitors getting up close with the extraordinary print from the Mimaki SUV at Sign and Digital UK."
The event will also see the launch of the Mimaki UJV500 roll-to-roll UV printer, which measures in at 1.6m in width and features LED curing.
A host of other kit across Mimaki’s full range will also be on show, with visitors able to view devices such as flatbed UV printers, and outdoor durable print and cut machines.
