Elle-Erre needed to build a production system that could meet growing demand in the events and sportswear markets for personalization, fast turnaround, and high quality, while improving productivity and reducing environmental impact.

By introducing four TS330-1600 units and TxLink4, Elle-Erre streamlined its production processes. The new setup enables flexible production from short runs to high-volume orders while ensuring consistent color reproduction and high quality. Production speed increased by 30%, material costs were reduced by 20%, and repeat orders rose by 30% within six months of installation.

The COVID-19 made it imperative to develop new sales channels.

Purchased sublimation transfer printers, UV printers, laminators, cutting plotters, etc., and launched an in-house manufacturing and sales business specializing in sports-related goods to meet detailed needs.

We cooperated with the printing of fabric and outdoor soft signage for the venue's spatial presentation.

Delivery within 3 days required even for large orders. Until now, several different printers had been used to handle large orders, but there was no room for production capacity.

The investment of the Tiger600 has tripled daily production, enabling the company to accept orders for three to four time the previous volume. In addition, orders for one-of-a-kind banners can be printed immediately for quick delivery.

Want to print on cotton towels with inkjet, but have high hurdles such as installation of pre- and post-printing equipment, use of water, etc.

Started printing on pile polyester towels with the introduction of a dye sublimation transfer printer. After installing the TS330-1600, production efficiency and print quality improved, and the company is satisfied with the results.

Since the company's main clientele is private customers, they were looking for machines that could work efficiently to handle high-mix, small-lot production.

The company introduced the "TS100-1600" sublimation transfer printer and the "CJV300-160 Plus" print & cut machine. In addition to stable operation, the ID cut function of the print & cut machine has improved work efficiency.

Responding to the diverse needs for broad-width digital printing exceeding 3 meters in width, the introduction of new equipment was absolutely necessary to achieve further success in business.

It is stimulating previously hidden demands within the advertisement and signage industry, leading to expansion of market share. Furthermore, we managed to grasp the opportunity to lead the curtain/table-cloth sector with the innovative broad-width digital printing technology.

Replacement was urgently required for the sublimation transfer printer JV4-180 upon termination of the maintenance/support term for the product.

High-speed printing capability accomplishing a maximum production speed of 115 sqm per hour enhanced productivity while declining the running cost. Additional fluorescent ink compatibility broadened the range of options offered to our customers.

We have operated full-color digital printing, mainly of sublimation transfer. However, as it can print only on polyester, we have been unable to respond to customers' requests for print on natural materials.

With the sublimation transfer printer that allows printing only on polyester, we used to fail to receive orders for print on natural materials, which is now possible. Supporting wider range of materials allowed us to receive order of new products.

Seeking for an edge as a textile retail shop

We succeeded in enhancing our ability to respond to diversified customers' needs by small-lot production of original textiles with shorter delivery time by inkjet printing. For bulk orders as well, producing a small quantity of samples allows us to drive business negotiations smoothly, which raised the order ratio.
