DuPont Imaging Technologies today announced the appointment of Brook International (Brook) as a marketing partner for its DuPont™ Artistri™ digital printing for textiles system. Brook provides polyester fabrics that are print-ready for both the DuPont™ Artistri™ 2020 and 3320 on-demand digital textile printers. The company offers a full line of polyester fabrics for end-use applications such as signage, banners, flags, in-store displays and other graphic applications where the use of disperse dye inks and high quality printing of images are required.
“We are pleased to be appointed a marketing partner of Artistri™,” stated Tim Egerton, global sales manager of Brook International. “The combination of our fabrics and the Artistri™ print quality delivers outstanding results that our customers have seen great success with in their markets.”
“Brook delivers very high-quality fabrics to the marketplace,” Gary Turner, business development manager, DuPont™ Artistri™, said. “Their products are being used successfully by several of our customers and we appreciate the fact that Brook maintains a constant focus on delivering a quality product.” Turner concludes, “Brook fabrics complement the quality emphasis we have with our digital printing for textiles program.”
Marketing partners of DuPont™ Artistri™ are a select group of industry-leading fabric, textile equipment and software suppliers whose offerings complement the Artistri™ portfolio of products for digital textile printing. This network makes it possible for DuPont to offer customers a fully vertical, integrated printing solution from fabric preparation through post-processing.
DuPont™ Artistri™ combines over 70 years of DuPont innovation and expertise in textile fibers with its knowledge of digital ink. Unlike other digital systems that print on fabric, Artistri™ ink is optimized to print directly onto a wide range of fabrics and is available in formulations that result in dynamic, eye-catching color and durability. This fully integrated digital textile printing system includes two large format Artistri™ printers, ink and software. Customers globally are using the system for demanding applications such as flags and banners, POP displays, soft signage, tension fabric displays, apparel, swimwear and interior finishes such as window coverings and upholstery. DuPont continues to focus on new markets such as the Grand Format image, graphics, trade show, apparel, home decor and other markets that demand beautiful printing onto textiles.
Brook International specializes in producing superior quality textiles for a wide range of applications including digital textile printing. Their objective is to strive to be the first choice supplier of high quality fabrics to flag makers and digital printers. They achieve this by combining and balancing a diverse range of skills, both internally and through their carefully selected manufacturing partners who provide a wide range of weaving, knitting, dyeing and technical finishing capabilities.
