Sawgrass teams up with Technotape

Sawgrass Technologies and Technotape International have worked together to develop a new production solution designed specifically for 3D sublimation, which was demonstrated at last week’s SGIA show in New Orleans, USA.

Sawgrass has teamed up with Technotape to develop a solution for adding decoration to objects with rounded edges.

Essentially, this pairs Sawgrass’s Virtuoso HD Product Decorating Systems, complete with its new SubliJet-3D inks, with Technotape’s sublimation ovens, 3D film and substrates. The aim is to make it easier to decorate objects with rounded edges. Vik Patel, Sawgrass’s director of business development, explained: “Technotape has been making this process more accessible to our customers, which is very exciting. We have been working with Techotape for the last year to develop a solution for incredible colour and quality exclusively for their products.”

Technotape’s 3D Sublimation Oven is engineered to be compact and easy to use, while producing superior-quality products. Their films and substrates are also optimised for the nuances that make 3D sublimation unique.

Bonne Klein Woolthuis, CEO of Technotape, commented: “The new SubliJet-3D inks and coordinating profiles have been developed to provide the best possible output within this production environment with Technnotape’s 3D oven, film and substrates,.” He added: “They have been designed with high-volume customisation and personalisation applications in mind, while at the same time combining high quality and ease-of-use.”
