Mimaki opens Turkish technical center

Wide format inkjet specialist Mimaki has opened a new technical center in Istanbul, Turkey to address “explosive growth” in the Turkish market.

The strategically-located Mimaki facility will act as a training and technical hub for the European, Middle Eastern and African regions. It will primarily serve the textile and apparel market, but will also provide support across the breadth of Mimaki’s product line.

The center was established to address what Mimaki describes as “explosive growth” in the Turkish market, as well as to facilitate continued expansion of the company’s reach in the Middle East and Africa

As well as offering training and technical support, the center houses a 550 sq m showroom that displays the entire range of Mimaki products for the sign graphics, industrial products, and textile and apparel industries.

‘Istanbul has long been the bridge between Europe and Asia,’ said Arjen Evertse, manager of the Mimaki Tech Centre. ‘Placing the Tech Centre here provides us with a unique opportunity to strengthen the bridge between our technology and our customers from three different continents.

‘It also offers an excellent opportunity to be closer to our network of dealers and distributors in this region, providing them with more personal support.’
