YPS strengthens digital textile printing offering with Epson

YPS strengthens digital textile printing with Epson F500.

Your Print Specialists’ (YPS) trailblazing journey into digital textile printing continues with the announcement of a new agreement with Epson to resell the SureColor SC-F series of dye-sublimation printers.

The printers are designed to easily and cost-effectively produce fashion items, sportswear, home textiles, soft signage and more. YPS will add the full range of products to its digital textile printing portfolio and demonstration models will be based at its showroom and planned Your Print Institute hub.

Georgia Brown, Sales Director for YPS, comments, “The Epson range fits perfectly within our existing range of direct to textile and dye-sub printing, finishing and service solutions, making YPS one of the leading companies in this exciting and fast-growing sector. We have already introduced an innovative approach to the market through our development of a Digital Textile Print Community in collaboration with industry ambassadors, which provides opportunities for skill based learning to students and potential entrepreneurs. Our relationship with Epson means we can extend these opportunities throughout the UK and we aim to launch our Your Print Institute Newcastle Hub in early 2020 at Sign&Digital.”

The Epson SureColor SC-F series printers bring a new level of functionality, ease-of-use and affordability to the market. Users can save time and money producing high-quality soft signage, sportswear, apparel, promotional items, accessories and gadgets on fabrics, garments and rigid substrates. “We always want to deliver the very best for our customers and this is what they get with Epson. The printers are unrivalled in terms of reliability, excellent performance and low running costs. The UltraChrome DS Inks ensure vibrant output and the superior printhead technology means minimal downtime and maximum productivity,” adds Brown.

Phil McMullin, Pro Graphics sales manager at Epson UK, comments, “We are pleased to announce YPS as an approved value add partner for our dye sublimation printers, the Epson SureColor SC-F series. YPS has a deep knowledge of the textile market developed over many years and an enviable reputation for integrity when advising customers as well as providing excellent support and backup. These are qualities at the core of Epson’s offering and we are therefore looking forward to developing our partnership over the coming years.”

Georgia Brown concludes, “The textile market is going through a monumental change with digitalisation and YPS aims to work with our clients every step of the way. Increasingly, the end user is having more influence on design than ever before and homeware, décor and clothing is being produced on demand and individualised. We believe the Epson products are true market leaders and we are delighted to be one of their key partners in delivering these products to the UK.”
