Platinum are pleased to announce the arrival of a twin…

Although non-Identical, we now have a second Mimaki wide format printer, this time a CJV30.

Production Director Mark Plummer explains the company’s decision on it’s latest purchase: “The consistency and reliability of Mimaki along with their fantastic range of products and support made this an easy choice for Platinum – the fact it was installed and producing live work within a day confirms it was the right decision for our current set up”.
