This announcement reinforces the business’ ongoing push to expand and strengthen sales and support capabilities for the Artistri™ brand of digital textile printing products around the world. Artistri™ is currently represented by approximately 30 authorized distributors and sales agents throughout the world, in addition to regional DuPont Sales Office in the Americas, Asia and Europe.
Steve Hurff, global sales and service manager for DuPont™ Artistri™ noted, “We are pleased to welcome Anitech as an authorized distributor for Artistri™ and feel they are a good fit for our network. The company is an industry leader offering advanced imaging technology products. The addition of Artistri™ will enable them to expand their offering into the unique world of textiles,” Hurff continued.
“This is a very good time to embrace this technology as this is going to be the new wave into the soft signage market, as well as the fashion industry,” stated Barry Grant, general manager at Anitech. “The market is ready for some change; customers are now looking for an edge in the market when they are presenting their product. Textiles offer a different approach -- they are cost effective, a lot easier to handle than conventional banner or vinyl and are environmental friendly. We are looking forward to some exciting times ahead,” Grant continued.
