Print Panther Direct purchased Konica Minolta’s JETvarnish 3DS embellishment press in 2017, and after five years deemed it a natural step to upgrade to the JETvarnish 3D Evolution. With a much more robust platform, 29” X 47” sheet size and 800 GSM stock compatibility, the new press will have a transformational impact on Print Panther Direct’s business, empowering it to competitively deliver short-run, high quality, embellished print. The upgrade will position the company to be the top print shop for digital embellishment in Canada.
“Adding the JETvarnish 3D Evolution will increase the value we provide our customers and provide new opportunities to expand our business,” said Christine Yardley, President, Print Panther Direct. “The press is one of the world’s most productive B2 digital embellishment solutions, complementing our existing line-up of digital presses and supporting our mission to provide customers with beautiful print and packaging.”
