Personalisation with HP
FESPA's Personalisation Experience Ambassador, Richard Askam speaks to Kirk Lewis, Global Head Site Flow Sales from HP about Personalisation. Kirk describes Personalisation as the ability to allow customers to fully express themselves however they like and how it has a different meaning for each person. Would individualisation be a more fitting name instead of Personalisation?
Richard discusses the current obstacles facing Personalisation from expanding and Kirk describes these obstacles as being due to accessibility, knowledge and awareness. Not all customers have access to technology or the knowledge on how to use it. Richard and Kirk also discuss why big brands and retailers not currently offering Personalisation? Kirk emphasizes that the print industry need to expand and get into new markets to grow their business.
Discover the Personalisation Experience taking place alongside FESPA Global Print Expo 2023 and European Sign Expo 2023 from 23rd May – 26th May 2023 at Messe Munich. The Personalisation Experience will bring together 3,500 stakeholders from retailers, brands, agencies to printers and fulfilment houses, connecting them with software providers and OEMs to explore the potential of personalisation in sportswear, packaging, product, loyalty and custom interiors.

Ink is crucial for large format inkjet printers, influencing substrate compatibility, productivity, and cost. Nessan Cleary discusses the three main types which include UV-curable ink, latex ink and eco-solvent ink. Each ink type has specific strengths and weaknesses, making printers choice dependent on budget and intended applications.
What are the benefits of Direct-To-Fabric printing?
Direct-to-fabric printing is gaining popularity for high-volume textile production, enabling on-demand, customized short runs. These printers offer ink flexibility, accommodating various fabric types like cotton and silk, though ink development focuses on faster turnaround by reducing pre- and post-processing. Compared to traditional methods, direct-to-fabric inkjet printing is a more sustainable option due to reduced water and chemical usage, and localized production.
What are the opportunities for large format providers regarding digital touch screens?
Digital touchscreens are becoming increasingly common, offering businesses opportunities to improve customer engagement and streamline operations. Nessan Cleary shares, while more expensive to implement than standard digital displays due to complex software and integration needs, touchscreens provide self-service options, multilingual support, and can reduce staffing costs in various settings like retail, transportation, and healthcare.
