Spandex says its recent open house event at its Bristol site was a success, attracting around 200 people from the sign-making and digital printing arenas.

"We're delighted with the number of visitors that attended the open house, a clear indication of the value that these events offer the industry," says Phil McMullin, Spandex UK country manager. "All attendees commented about the importance of gathering industry information and having direct interaction with product and industry experts. We're equally delighted about the number of orders closed at the event, in particular for the Epson GS6000 printer."

He adds: "From interactive workshops, live product demonstrations and practical expert advice, visitors went away with a number of ideas on how to make the most out of new and existing equipment to maximise the opportunities of the growing textile and soft signage market."

The event also featured seminars, including two delivered by Color Concepts on digital print and the opportunities it offers.
