Mimaki USA and Avery Dennison Announce a Marketing Program
Manufacturers who earn an ICS warranty must work closely with Avery Dennison to ensure their printers and inks pass rigorous testing.
Suwanee, Georgia-based Mimaki USA, makers of wide-format inkjet printers and cutters, announces a new marketing program with Mentor, Ohio-based graphics films manufacturer Avery Dennison.
With this collaboration, Mimaki’s UCJV Series printers, utilizing LUS-170 or LUS-200 inks, will now be added to the Avery Dennison Integrated Component System (ICS) Performance Guarantee.
According to Avery Dennison, its ICS Performance Guarantee combines its films with qualified printing components to form a system that offers compatibility and provides outstanding performance. Through joint developmental work between Avery Dennison and Mimaki USA, the UCJV Series printers, using either LUS ink sets, have withstood rigorous testing and met the stringent durability and physical performance specifications to earn ICS Performance Guarantee status. Under this guarantee, Mimaki’s LUS-170 ink supports a wide range of indoor and outdoor applications, while the LUS-200 ink is ideal for curved surface applications like vehicle wraps and fleet graphics.
“We are pleased to add Mimaki’s UCJV Series printers with both LUS-170 and LUS-200 ink sets to our ICS Performance Guarantee portfolio,” says Paul Roba, OEM relationship manager of Avery Dennison Graphics Solutions. “The addition of this platform provides our customers another premium printing solution for their commercial graphic needs and expands the digital solutions available from Avery Dennison’s and Mimakis strong working relationship.”
Graphics produced on Avery Dennison digital media products printed with Mimaki’s UCJV Series printers are high resolution and offer leading durability for indoor and outdoor applications, the two companies say. They say the ICS Performance Guarantee is available globally.
