‘It’s unfortunate that we have had to take the difficult decision to cancel our stand at drupa next year. We have concluded that Covid-19 will continue to trouble all of us, especially in terms of travel and hospitality. We have therefore decided to focus on giving our customers the best possible presentation of our products, by using the latest technology services available,’ said Richard Danon, group chairman at Dantex.

The company will be taking advantage of its new infrastructure to provide socially distanced on-site visits and events at the centers with virtual presentations for those customers who prefer not to travel.

The technology centers, based in Bradford, UK and Bensheim, Germany, will be used primarily to spotlight new technologies in the UV inkjet digital press line-up, specifically the high-speed, reel-to-reel PicoJet 254 and 330, in-line finishing options, as well as new plate processing equipment.

‘Dantex will be providing a comprehensive showcase of our technology by every available means possible - whether that be in a virtual setting, video presentations or via open house events, whilst observing social distancing protocols. Our technology centers will be geared to deliver an immersive experience for those looking to learn more about our digital solutions, plates and processing equipment,’ concluded Danon.

As a regular exhibitor at industry events, Dantex Group will be closely monitoring the current situation with a view to returning to the exhibition circuit when it is safe and practical to do so.
