Stravers Promotions, a specialist wholesaler in business gifts for 40 years having an in-house print division for customized promotional gifts and gadgets has installed the very first XpertJet 1462UF A1+ UV LED flatbed direct to object printer in the Netherlands.

With the new Mutoh machine, Stravers Promotions - and its subsidiary Bedrukken.nl - will be able to significantly increase their digital print production capacity for the customization and direct printing of a wide range of gadgets and business gifts up to a thickness of 15 cm, including products where laser engraving/cutting is combined with direct printing.

Confronted with a growing demand of added value personalised gifts and the need for fast delivery terms, Stavers Promotions was facing production capacity challenges.  Initially, they were considering buying multiple smaller direct-to-object printers to increase production capacity and efficiency.

After an in-depth demonstration including a day production test at Mutoh Europe’s experience and demonstration center in Belgium, Stravers Promotions convinced itself that the new made in Japan A1+ XpertJet 1462UF was the best fit for their production needs.

Deciding factors to opt for the XpertJet 1462UF were:

• Speed: High speed 2 layer printing on the 1420 mm x 700 mm print bed.

• Combination of high speed and high quality.

• Versatility to print on a wide variety of objects up to 15 cm height.

• Mutoh VerteLith software offers simplicity and ease of use, making the production process more efficient.

• Compact size and footprint.
