US-based chemical company DuPont has reached a significant milestone with the sale of its 500th Cyrel Fast system and the launch of the Cromaprint wide format digital printing system and DuPont Artistri 3320 grand format textile printing system.

The company developed the Cyrel Fast, Cromaprint and DuPont Artistri systems for customers who require faster, more reliable printing with consistent quality and superior colour for use on paper, film and vinyl and all types of fabrics. All three provide or enable on-demand printing and complete system solutions - from colour management to digital workflow to the finished product.

They are also environmentally smart technologies, with no processing solvents to handle, store or recycle And are said to use significantly less water, ink and energy compared with conventional printing systems.

The Cromaprint 22UV fully integrated digital printing system is designed to meet the high volume and high-speed production needs for digital printing onto a wide variety of rigid and flexible surfaces. The recently launched Artistri 3320 digital textile printing system offers 3.3 metre wide roll-to-roll printing and access to new applications for digital printing on textiles. The company’s Artistri digital printing systems consist of three main components: digital textile printers, textile inks and colour and control management software. Customers use the systems for applications such as flags and banners, displays, apparel, silk accessories and swimwear.
