INX Digital will run and demonstrate two highly popular and environmentally friendly alternative inkjet inks in their booth (#214) at the annual FASTSIGNS® Convention, to be held January 29-30 at the Hilton Anatole in Dallas. The TRIANGLE® ESC and TRIANGLE MSS eco-solvent wide format inks are faring well in the marketplace, and the success FASTSIGNS experienced in 2014 is one of the contributing reasons.
FASTSIGNS now has more than 500 stores in North America, setting record system-wide sales in 2014 while signing forty-five new franchise agreements and opening thirty-one new stores. The company expects robust growth in 2015 with an estimated 50 new centers projected to be opened by the end of the year. At the two-day convention, INX Digital will run ESC inks on an Epson GS6000 commercial outdoor printer. The MSS inks will be demonstrated on a Mimaki® JV33 wide format inkjet printer.
“The FASTSIGNS corporate office promotes us as alternative ink suppliers. Our success with their organization is largely due to our dealer network, so we attend the convention based on their support of us and for other reasons,” said Susie Mendelssohn, North American Sales manager and international marketing manager for INX Digital.
“Every FASTSIGNS franchisee owns a printer and there is a good chance we can save them money. They’ll be able to see for themselves the results ESC and MSS achieve in the booth, and many of the franchise owners are already very familiar with the various benefits the ESC inks provide. This event also is very successful for us because it is held in a relaxed setting. People are not as rushed to see everything as they are at a typical trade show, and that gives us plenty of time to talk about the products and learn more about their business.”
TRIANGLE ESC inks work in tandem with the Epson Stylus® GS6000 commercial outdoor printer and the Epson SureColor® series printers to produce outdoor banners, posters and tradeshow graphics. INX Digital is planning a commercial launch of ESC with a bulk ink system specific to the Epson SureColor® series some time in the first half of this year.
TRIANGLE MSS inks are very cost effective when used with either the Mimaki® JV33™ or JV34™ inkjet printers. Offering high quality, performance and durability to produce superb results, they are formulated to be color and chemically compatible with Mimaki SS21 inks. Fast drying and possessing a broad range of compatibility with vinyl banner media, MSS is available in CYMK and does not require re-profiling. These inks are available for use in various options, including 440ml cartridges, one-liter bottles for use with the Easy Fill Bulk system, and the Eco Bulk ink system that contains the ink in a 2000 ml bag-in-box format.
Both the ESC and MSS inks are supported by INX’s worldwide outdoor durability warranty and Ink Train warranty for TRIANGLE brand inks. Customer can expect less waste when using cartridge-to-cartridge changeovers.
