Quote & Print Software will have ‘something for everyone’ at its PacPrint display, with a focus on the new Cloud Print ERP software, and the launch of a new Label & Carton Packaging Print ERP module to join large-format, sheet-fed and digital print ERP software in the company’s expansive range.The 40-year-old Australian software house has made its name delivering print ERP solutions for print service providers in Australia and across the Asia Pacific and Middle East regions, installing more than 1000+ printers in 12 countries.Managing Director Shanti Kumar says the company will take the opportunity provided by the industry’s leading regional show to showcase this new offering, as well as modules for a range of sectors, including a totally new Label & Carton Packaging Print ERP module.“Our robust software solutions have been designed specifically to meet the needs of print service providers, large and small, covering all aspects of the global print and packaging industry,” Kumar says, “and we’ll be showcasing a full range at PacPrint, with a special focus on new releases.”Over the past five years, Kumar says the company has invested considerable resources to develop its Cloud Print ERP solution which uses the latest Microsoft technology and data hosted at the Microsoft Data Centre in Sydney. The final solution, based on Sofware as a Service (SaaS) or ‘cloud’ model, includes mobile applications for IOS and Android and is integrated to MYOB, Xero and a number of web-2-print solutions and is available on a subscription service based on the modules included and number of users.“This allows users to benefit from a turnkey solution for a fixed rental price, with everything included – software, any modifications required, installation, training and support from one of our senior print consultants,” Kumar says.“The benefits of using a cloud-based solution are many – chief among them is the ability to access information anytime, anywhere, plus it also saves about 30% in infrastructure costs, because users don’t have to invest in, and maintain, an expensive Local Area Network.”All software has a number of core functions designed to streamline processes. These include estimating; creation of job bags, invoices, purchase orders, packing labels and shipping documents; capture of employee time including actual cost versus estimated; exporting of reports to Excel and debtor and creditor management. Management can define who has access to each level of the program.Specific modules which will be featured at the show including the Wide-Format Quoting Module and the new Label & Carton Packaging Module, which will be demonstrated for the first time at PacPrint.“The label module features a knife register, which allows knives to be listed by size, type, colour and codes, automatic selection of the optimally-sized cylinder for each job, automatic repeat length calculation, and quantity-based press selection,” Kumar says. “For cartons, the features are similar, with input for interlocking designs and a stock grain direction selection.”The Wide-Format Quoting Module supports both roll-fed and flat-bed devices and has a range of handy functions which will be of particular interest to the many visitors from the sign, display and large-format industries who will attend PacPrint and the Visual Impact Expo. “Operators can define the area to be used – whether that’s image area, full stock width or full machine bed width – when calculating for speed, and also specify multiple print modes, each with their own individual speeds and make-ready set,” Kumar explains. “Multiple products can be included in the one quote, then converted into individual jobs linked by a common reference code, making production and total job tracking easy,” he adds.Importantly, all Quote & Print’s solutions are designed on a modular basis, so companies can...Read More. . .

The Melbourne Convention & Exhibition Centre held its first ‘Centrestage Update’ customer briefing via Zoom last week, saying the lifting of restrictions around Australia and in particular in the southern capital, point to a bright outlook for 2022.The news was overwhelmingly good for PacPrint, with all signs pointing to the MCEC holding numerous events well before Christmas and expecting a big lift in both the number of events, and the venue’s capacity limits, from March and April next year.MCEC Chief Executive, Peter King, was joined by COO Helen Fairclough, Chief Communications Officer Melissa Sweetland and Senior Manager for Security & Safety Darren Horne – probably the meeting’s most anticipated speaker – to bring event organisers up to date with the latest developments, as well as the outlook from government and health authorities.While the pandemic had created an undeniably difficult landscape for the venue, King said his team had used the time wisely, adding expertise and capabilities, expanding and revising its management structure, and investing in new digital tools and technologies to make it even more agile and customer-focused.There is no question, he said, that venues are on the way back to full capacity, with the MCEC positioned more strongly than most due to positive discussions with Government which could see it designated a ‘venue of significance’ – leading to an expedited easing of restrictions. An announcement on that is expected soon.Jenny Harris, Events Manager for Visual Connections, the event organisers for PacPrint, Visual Impact and the Label & Packaging Expo, says the outlook should give confidence to everyone making plans to travel to Melbourne for the shows.“The indications from government are very clear that we will be moving to lift a whole suite of restrictions into 2022 as we work towards living safely with COVID-19,” she said following the meeting.“Already, the MCEC is hosting successful events, and we would expect that things will look almost back to normal by the time PacPrint rolls around mid-year. “Regardless of restriction changes, however, the MCEC is now well-versed in providing a COVID-safe environment with contactless check in and payment systems across the venue, clear signage and floor decals, more than 100 sanitiser stations and plenty of COVID marshalls to enforce capacity limits and social distancing.”“Other risk mitigation strategies include things like revised cleaning schedules and a new return-air HVAC system, which pushes 100% fresh air into an indoor space, lifting the air quality to essentially on par with outdoor spaces.”With virtual and hybrid event elements also being facilitated, and the physical spaces within the MCEC complex being reimagined with greater access to outdoor areas and the new 2000m2 rooftop Skyfarm now available for event organisers, the future does indeed look bright.“We have an excellent relationship with the team at the MCEC and are working closely with them, with our other partners, and with well over 60 exhibitors as we confidently prepare for the shows to open from June 28 – July 1, 2022,” Harris said.The latest information, floor plans, exhibitor details and more will continue to be available on the PacPrint website, www.pacprint.com.au Read More. . .

The PacPrint Board has today announced that, due to ongoing uncertainty caused by COVID outbreaks around the country, the industry's leading expo has been postponed until the middle of 2022. PacPrint 2021, Visual Impact Melbourne and the Label & Packaging Expo were due to open at the end of September, however with the current situation in Sydney and, to a lesser extent, Melbourne, Queensland and South Australia, Chair of the Board Sue Threlfo says the decision became ‘inevitable’. “The past couple of weeks has demonstrated that, unfortunately, this pandemic is far from over. Realistically, we have come to accept that restrictions will continue to apply for some weeks and perhaps months to come, which may impact not only on the venue arrangements, but on the ability of our exhibitors to properly prepare their stands. “We’ve been in constant discussions with the MCEC and with Austrade, and the owners of the shows Visual Connections Australia and the Print & Visual Communications Association (PVCA), as the situation has evolved. “We are all in agreement that the increasing uncertainty for our exhibitors and visitors has become untenable, so we have made the exceptionally difficult decision to postpone the expo until 2022. “The exhibitors are supportive of this decision and have indicated their commitment to the show remains unchanged.” The new dates – the first available at the Melbourne Convention & Exhibition Centre for next year – will be June 28 – July 1, 2022. The latest information, floor plans, exhibitor details and more will continue to be available on the PacPrint website, www.pacprint.com.au Read More. . .

Shann Group, leading supplier of wide format print media, industrial fabrics, specialised textiles and associated products, will showcase options for the shop fitout, interiors, sign, display and wide-format print markets at the Visual Impact Expo, to be held alongside PacPrint 2021 at the Melbourne Convention & Exhibition Centre in Melbourne at the end of September. Jack Matherson, National Product Manager – Digital Print Media for Shann says the display will centre around the popular Drytac range of products, providing options for a wide range of retail, commercial and interior applications, wall coverings, banners and graphics, among other things. “We’re planning to have a diverse selection of products on display to inspire and inform industry professionals who need high quality solutions for a wide variety of applications,” Matherson says, adding that the display will include a number of eco-friendly products that are not only PVC-free, but are made using recycled or recyclable content. Leading the display will be the Australian launch of Drytac’s popular Retac range of wall graphics, with finishes including smooth, linen, woodgrain, sand and more. “The ReTac range of polymeric removable vinyl’s enables businesses to create displays that not only target specific products and areas, but which can be easily moved to respond to changes in footfall or campaign strategy,” Matherson explains. “This is due to Drytac’s unique adhesive science, which allows graphics to be removed and repositioned many times without losing adhesion, and leaving no residue at all when it’s removed.” Windows and other high-profile surfaces will also be a feature, with DryTac’s ViziPrint products including the Deco SR scratch-resistant, optically clear film which adheres permanently to virtually any smooth surface, including glass, plastic and metal, and ViziPrint Illuminate for front- or back-lit applications. “Deco SR is ideal for high-end architectural and building requirements as well as a variety of custom branding and decorating applications,” Matheson explains, saying the durable film is designed to last for up to seven years making it ideal for long-term indoor or outdoor window and building graphics. “ViziPrint Illuminate has been specially designed to deliver an unrivalled experience, day or night. It’s a translucent, matte PET film which is reverse-printable ideal for applications like window advertisements, which are viewed during the day in direct sunlight, or illuminated by store lighting at night,” he says, “and it’s also ideal for privacy or decorative applications and backlit displays. “Again, both products feature patented Drytac adhesion technology, so they’re removed easily leaving no residue.” Adding a slightly different angle to ‘removable graphics’ the company will also show the ChalkMate PVC film which provides permanent chalkboard finish wherever it’s required, and the WipeErase permanent dry erase films, which create more of a ‘whiteboard’ surface. “Self-adhesive, printable ChalkMate film is ideal for teaching environments, restaurants and bars, offices and at home – in fact, the applications are almost endless,” Matheson says. “Because it’s a film, ChalkMate can be cut into custom shapes, overprinted with branding or permanent messaging, and it can be used with either conventional chalk or chalkboard markers. “The WipeErase range, which includes permanent white and clear films, as well as a ReTac removable option, feature a chemical, scratch- and graffiti- resistant gloss surface which resists ghosting or staining from ink, providing the ideal surface for planning or scheduling boards, menus, maps, calendars, sports coaching hospital message boards and more.” With social distancing during the pandemic, floor graphics have been in the spotlight recently, and Matheson says Shann Group will have plenty of solutions for both internal and external applications, including DryTac’s easy-to-apply SpotOn dot adhesive films which are ideal for short-term applications like POP...Read More. . .

Böttcher Systems will show off its full range of solutions on its stand at PacPrint 2021, with a display it says will support all ‘four pillars’ of its business - carton packaging, printing with hybrid UV and Light Emitting Diode inks (HUV-LED), flexible packaging and commercial print. The result is a showcase which will be a real drawcard for visitors not only to PacPrint, but to the co-located Label & Packaging Expo. A focus of the show for Böttcher will be innovative solutions aimed at helping businesses reduce makeready times while also improving their sustainability record, says Managing Director, Mitch Mulligan (pictured left). “Böttcher’s ECS ‘Easy Cleaning System’, for instance, was designed with this in mind,” he says. “These easy-to-clean inking rollers incorporate special polymers and additives in the rubber to reduce the adhesion of the ink to the roller surface, effectively improving ink transfer whilst also enhancing the washability of the roller train. “This not only saves time, but means you can significantly reduce your wash consumption, typically by 30-50%. These ECS rollers are available for all drying technologies and in a range of durometers to accommodate printers’ and press manufacturers’ preferences.” As well as the special roller coverings, the ECS system now also includes washes with enhanced cleaning power, including the Mistral ECS which will be launched at PacPrint. “To make this product, we took our highest-quality conventional wash and made it even better,” Mulligan says. “New materials not only improve its ability to dissolve and remove ink from rollers and blankets, but increase the proportion of biological components in the wash, helping businesses reduce their environmental impact. “With businesses in this region among the most eco-conscious in the world, we believe PacPrint is a fitting place to launch the best wash Böttcher has ever made!” Tailor-made solutions for flexographic and rotogravure printing will also feature on the company’s PacPrint stand, with the proven CAMBIUM sleeve for plate mounting among them. “Valued by independent printers and packaging groups for their geometric and mechanical stability and low weight, CAMBIUM sleeves are now available internationally through the Böttcher Group with our worldwide production and sales companies,” Mulligan advises. “We’ll also be showing sleeves for plate assembly, including products from the BöttcherFlex product series which includes DLE elastomer sleeves and plates for direct laser engraving. DLE elastomer sleeves enable premium printing quality with the advantages of an endless seamless printing form.”  Pictured above (from left): Bottcher's DLE Sleeve and Plate; PM Sleeve and Thin-Classic Sleeves Böttcher’s flexible packaging range is complemented by its converting products, which include special products used on a wide variety of converting equipment to facilitate processing steps from varnishing to laminating, winding, slitting, die-cutting and embossing. “These products have been developed in response to the specific requirements of each processing step, maximising quality while minimising wear and tear, to increase longevity and reduce downtime,” Mulligan says. “And when it comes to gravure, we have Böttcher impression and inking rollers to help enhance production stability on both long and short print runs and ensure consistency when printing frequent repeat jobs. Featuring modern rubber and polyurethane coverings, these products meet the most stringent requirements for conventional and ESA package printing,” he explains. “The BöttcherFlex portfolio is rounded off by the new washing and care products, including VELVET for use with water colours and SOLVENTO for solvent and UV inks. This gives print service providers a full range of efficient cleaning products available for daily use, and for special deep cleaning of anilox rollers, we offer the product CREME, as well as HISONIC High Pressure for use with high pressure...Read More. . .

With new patterns regularly added to our HEX’PERIENCE decoration range, we’ve got design and fitout professionals covered, whether it’s a Mexican vibe they’re after, a minimalistic feel or even an industrial, modernised brick design – the options are almost endless.”Textile markings will also feature, with HEXIS featuring its new CUTFLEX film range, released just earlier this year. Visitors to the stand will be able to check out a wide range of new options, including GlowCut, MetalCut and ColorCut ranges, which will be showcased alongside the traditional SilkPrint, NylPrint and BlockPrint PRINTFLEX digital printing media.“The launch of this newly improved series is already attracting praise from experienced tradies for having superior quality, due to its high stretch and extreme thinness, which makes weeding faster and easier,” Parsonson reports. “We’re so confident that professionals will love these new products, we’re inviting them to visit the stand at Visual Impact to have a go at heat-pressing and weeding their own mini sample tees – you really can’t do better than experiencing the difference for yourself.”Parsonson says these products will be just some of the highlights on the HEXIS stand at PacPrint, which will also feature the latest rounds in the HEXIS World Wrap Battle – a lively and fast-paced competition between the industry’s leading wrap and installation specialists.PacPrint, Visual Impact Melbourne and the Label & Packaging Expo will be held from 28 June to 1 July at the Melbourne Convention & Exhibition Centre. Click here to register for the show, go to www.pacprint.com.au for more information on the expo, or visit the HEXIS Australia website for more information on their entire product range.  Read More. . .

Hexis Australia has announced that its popular World Wrap Battle will come to Melbourne for the very first time, as part of the company's showcase at PacPrint 2021 at the Melbourne Convention & Exhibition Centre from 28 September to 1 October this year. HEXIS specialises in high-performance self-adhesive cast PVC, polyurethane and latex films, offering highly innovative solutions for professionals in everything from digital printing, signage and visual communication, to vehicle wrapping and textile marking. Ian Parsonson, Managing Director of HEXIS Australia, says the company’s decision to host the HEXIS World Wrap Battle for the first time in Melbourne during the industry’s leading trade show will once again put the excellence of Australian wrappers and installers in the spotlight. “It’s been two years since the last battle rounds and we’re looking forward to having the industry’s best talent join in the battle, following the huge popularity of previous rounds in Sydney (pictured) and Brisbane, which not only showcased some amazing Aussie talent but saw winners walk away with trips to France and the USA,” Parsonson said today. This year, a seven-day, six-night trip for two to the Great Barrier Reef off Cairns in Queensland is the major prize, in a draw featuring over $10,000 worth of prizes. “During the show, we’ll also be featuring more than 15 new colours in their SKINTAC vehicle wrap series, including more fluorescent colours for racing cars, satin red finishes for the posh elegant-finished look, and of course classic colours like ice white and jazz blue that never go out of style,” Parsonson reports. “We know transport plays a big part in vehicle marketing and savings in labour are always welcome, so we’d encourage operators to also come and check out HEXIS latest polymeric THE200EVO kit that will tick all the boxes for those large fleet jobs.” Paint protection films, too, are increasingly sought after by car lovers he says. “This is where the cutting-edge technology of BODYFENCE, the HEXIS next-generation car body protection range, really shines, protecting vehicles not just against the elements, but all forms of external aggression,” he says, pointing to a video on the company’s socials (@hexis_australia) which shows how BODYFENCE PPF film can protect against intentional vandalism, demonstrated on a Porsche. Also offering that protective factor are the latest additions to the HEXIS range of tinted vehicle and solar protection films, SKYFALL & MAJESTIK, which feature thermal and anti-UV protection as well as anti-scratch coating properties – “just what we need for our cars down under,” Parsonson points out.
