Epson’s complete 'design-to-finish' production demos of t-shirts, apparel, wall coverings and signage attracted huge crowds to during the recent FESPA Digital show in Munich.

The company also picked up two prestigious EDP Awards: the Epson SureColor SC-F2000 won “Best Direct to Garment Textile Printer” and Japanese Kozo Paper Thin translucent, natural-fibre inkjet paper, won “Best No-Adhesive Roll Media”.

These have feature several ‘firsts’ which bring new levels of quality and versatility to the industry.
