The demand for special effects is met by screen printing technology - think metallic inks for luxury cosmetics or tactile or sandy effects, or glitter and embossing.

Screen printing is a fully-fledged art within the graphic arts industry, founded in Japan, and it is from this country that one of the most innovative and eco-friendly machines originates: the GOCCOPRO line by Riso distributed by Market Screen.

We can see it at Print4All in Market Screen’s workshop along with its multitude of on-materials printing applications, including fabrics, plastics, wood, glass, paper and metal.

GOCCOPRO has changed screen printing by making it a cleaner, more efficient and most importantly, highly sustainable process. Total respect for the environment is Riso’s mantra, who have created a solution that can be adopted by companies looking to adapt to market demands, which are increasingly addressing packaging.

Finishing that can be applied to many substrates with water-based or polyurethane inks, not to mention the special effects: by dabbing with a damp cloth, the printed object reveals a hidden message.

Designing and producing new substrates for print enables increasingly engaging communications. The visual communications market calls for versatility, speed and effective solutions: next generation materials that can provide an increasingly engaging experience.

Supplying substrates for small and large formats has been Guandong's mission for fifteen years, a company which, at Print4All, is debuting the new Mr Magnus business unit specialised in marketing plastic sheets for digital printing.

A product range that offers increasingly broad and flexible marketing possibilities.

Compliant with the most rigorous European safety, pollution and environmental standards, products from the Mr Magnus line can be printed with Toner, UV, Latex and Screen-Printing inks.

Increasingly modern substrates in step with the demands of brand and agency innovation and creativity: self-adhesive products, adhesive fabrics, magnetic, metal and erasable boards, all designed to be moved and repositioned with extreme ease, without expert support. A wide range of formats ranging from A4 to B1 as well as customised solutions.
