We just hosted another full Born To Wrap 2-day workshop at our California offices and I have no doubt that our free wrap demos at SGIA will also be well attended. I believe there are two primary reasons for this continued interest in designing and installing vehicle wraps and they are profound.

Acaba de concluir la Graph Expo en Chicago, y después de algunos días recorriendo el evento y platicando con clientes en nuestro pabellón, saqué algunas conclusiones acerca del estado de la industria de impresiones. Antes que nada, a pesar de todos los debates y preguntas sobre la necesidad de la impresión en la era digital, la industria se encuentra bastante bien e innovando a un ritmo vertiginoso. Los representantes de las imprentas caminaban por los pasillos buscando nuevas técnicas y tecnologías que continúen expandiendo los límites de lo que podamos hacer con tintas sobre papel (o sobre plástico, metal, madera y otros miles de sustratos).

Last week, I had the chance to spend some time with Roland DG end users at one of our "Digital Printing Boot Camp” classes, and as always, I enjoyed the experience, and came away impressed. One of the things I particularly noticed was just how varied our users are. Even with a class of about 10, we had Roland DG owners from every region of the US, as well as one from Canada.

Last week, The Big Picture Magazine released a sneak peek of their annual wide-format forecast, and I thought the article was on target, but also had some interesting observations, for example:

Hey! Our Roland DG VersaUV just earned the Label Industry Global Award for new Innovation at Label Expo this week! How ’bout that!?! The VersaUV has been around for a few years now and although it’s gained some momentum recently, it remains for the large part unknown among most of our target audience.

What’s with all the economists making predictions lately? I suppose that’s what economists are paid to do, but on any given day we can read that the economy is heading into another recession, or that the economy is slowly improving, or some combination of the two. Come on, can’t we all just get along?
