Sign Digital UK Review: Wrapped in quality and support

Cumbria's award-winning vehicle graphics, sign and print specialist, AstSigns, has invested in Roland DG wide format technology. The 30-employee company holds the contracts for national hauliers including Eddie Stobart.

The ISO 9001 accredited company installed a 74in AdvancedJet AJ-740 printer capable of 80m2/h, plus two 64in SolJet Pro III XJ-640s which can print at 1,440dpi.

AstSigns' owner and managing director, Mark Aston, said: "The printers use Eco-Sol Max inks and produce fantastic graphics on a variety of substrates, but the real clincher for us was the fact that Roland DG would guarantee next-day service levels. As a businessman I need to know that the technology I invest in is backed with real support. So far, we have installed three Roland DG wide format printers, which we use for all the Eddie Stobart work, and I expect that in the near future there will be more."

Roland's managing director, Jerry Davies, added: "Today's customers expect far more than high quality technology, which is something of a given. They need to know that the manufacturer they choose to partner with has the right levels of service to support their business. Roland DG has invested heavily to ensure that it has the requisite infrastructure in place to guarantee this support. This in-the-field support is coupled with initiatives like Value Up, which allows customers to download software upgrades without charge, and means that Roland DG (UK) is the partner of choice for the business-savvy sign-maker and printer."
